D#/Ebm
The dancer slows her frantic pace
In pain and desperation,
F#/Gb
Her aching limbs and downcast face
B
Aglow with perspiration
D#/Ebm
Stiff as wire, her lungs on fire,
With just the briefest pause
F#/Gb
The flooding through her memory,
B C#/Db
The echoes of old applause.
She limps across the floor
F#/Gb D#/Eb
And closes her bedroom door...

(This pattern follows through out the verse)
D#/Ebm
The writer stares with glassy eyes
Defies the empty page
F#/Gb
His beard is white, his face is lined
B
And streaked with tears of rage.
D#/Ebm
Thirty years ago, how the words would flow
With passion and precision,
F#/Gb
But now his mind is dark and dulled
B C#/Db
By sickness and indecision
And he stares out the kitchen door
F#/Gb D#/Eb
Where the sun will rise no more...
D#/Eb C#/Db G#/Ab

D#/Eb C#/Db
Some are born to move the world
G#/Ab
To live their fantasies
D#/Eb C#/Db
But most of us just dream about
G#/Ab
The things we'd like to be
Em D
Sadder still to watch it die
C G
Than never to have known it
B C#/Db
For you, the blind who once could see
B C#/Db B C#/Db
The bell tolls for thee...
B C#/Db D#/Eb
The bell tolls for..
