Chimes of Freedom
Far between the sundown's finish And midnights broken toll We ducked inside The doorway [as]thunder [went]crashing
As majestic bells of bolts Struck shadows in the sounds Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing

[The Byrds skipped the next few verses]
There are cities melted furnace unexpectedly we watched with faces hidden as the walls were tightening
As the echo of the wedding bells before the blowing rain dissolved into the bells of the lightning
Tolling for the rebel tolling for the rake tolling for the luckless they are bound and damned forsaked tolling for the outcasts burning constantly at stake and we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
Through the mad mystic hammering and the wild ripping hail the sky cracked its farms in naked wonder
As the clanging of the church bells blew far into the breeze leaving only bells of lightning and its thunder
Striking for the gentle striking for the kind striking for the guardians and protectors of the mind and the poet and painter far behind his rightful time and we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
In the wild cathedral evening the rain unravelled tales for a disrobed faceless farms of no position
Tolling for the tongues with no place to bring their thoughts all down and taken for granted situations
Tolling for the deaf and blind tolling for the mute for a mistreated maidless mother, a mistitled prostitute for the misdemeanor outlaw chained and cheated by pursuit and we gaze upon the chimes of freedom flashing
[The Byrds pick it up here]
Even though the cloud's white curtain in a far off corner [flowered] and the hypnotic splattered mist was slowly lifting
Electric light still struck like arrows fired but [further ones] condemned to drift or else be kept from drifting
Tolling for the searching ones on their speechless seeking trail for the lonesome hearted lovers with too personal a tale and for each unharmful gentle soul misplaced inside a jail and we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
[Byrds/McGuinn: dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee dee-duh]
Starry eyes and laughing as I recall when we were caught [trapped]
