Bell Clinks

Cardiacs


Tom: Dm

G        Eb   F       Eb    G   Eb F Eb
Choosing my resources at random endeavours
G      Eb          Ab     Db
As the fool thinks so the bell clinks
Gb       Cb
Fall for my own pain
E                   B        E          B     Db  Ab
There's a tiny step from the sublime to the ridiculous
E              B   Eb           Ab
Thoroughly related which one am I?
Ab      E     Gb           E        Ab  E  Gb E
So much to be learned from this new age of reason
Ab      E       A          D
This is what it shouts and screams
    G    C
Loudly into my ear
F                C  F                 C
Every single man he has a fool in his sleeve
D       A  F
Whether he wants it there or not
C  E      A
It breeds sanity

[CHORUS]
Am       D         A           G
One step above the sublime it amounts
       C         D          E
To the feeling inside Jon rejects
      Am          D         A           Dm
Jon rejects every feeling inside, step above
       G           D      C F
The sublime to the ridiculous
Am         D             A         G
Dismissing thoughts in a head he refuse
   C             D         E
To accept taking logic within
       Am        D       A          G
Within logic within everything he refuse
   Cm    F   Cm      F
He fears his creepiest thoughts

[only bass for the first part]
Stupid soldier he's falling shot without purpose
Stupid soldier shot at random
Dies without respect
E                         B  E                       B    Db    Ab
Where's the harm in that? He should have kept a sane mind after all
E                 B   Eb       Ab
How can he be trusted after he dies?
Ab    E        Gb      E      Ab E   Gb   E
Level head sat proudly on the wisest shoulders
Ab        E       A          D
Stares an eyefull toward his sister
G        C
Smiles a wiliest smile
F                   C    F                 C         D    A
Isn't life a wheeze when treasure's in the trees and I possess
F                    C  E      A
Longer arms than you or anyone else?

(CHORUS)
Am       D         A           G
One step above the sublime it amounts
       C         D          E
To the feeling inside Jon rejects
      Am          D         A           Dm
Jon rejects every feeling inside, step above
       G           D      C F
The sublime to the ridiculous
Am         D             A         G
Dismissing thoughts in a head he refuse
   C             D         E
To accept taking logic within
       Am        D       A          Dm
Within logic within everything he refuse
   G            D              C    F
He believe in a thoughts and a laughter 
Db   Eb
Will reign
