[Verse 1]
[C]Ear[Dm]ly[C][Dm][Ab][G]
[C]morning [G]whi[Am]spers to me
[Dm]I was taken unaw[Gsus4]are
[F]I rem[C]ember sun[Am]light creepin'
[Dm]In the w[Gsus4]indow over there[G]
[C]The day had promised true lov[Am]e

[Verse 2]
Smiles [Am]awaken as we [Dm]rise
Our golden slumbers long gone
[Bb]Only you got [Am]in my[C] eyes
And [Am]now I'll never be the same
'Cause [Dm]you made me over
[Gsus4]

[Verse 3]
[C]
If I were a bell, [Cm]baby, I would ring
[C]Tell the whole world that you are
[Bb]my e[Am]verything[Dm][Am]
[C]If I were a bell, [Cm]baby, you would know
[C]That you are my only lover and
[Csus4]it's wond[C]erful
If I [F]were a bell
Baby, I would ring [Em]each [Dm]day
[Gsus4]for you
[C][Abm][G]

[Verse 4]
[C]Early [Am]morning it talks to [Dm]me
I was taken [Gsus4]by surprise
I re[C]member [G]fin[Am]gers floatin[Dm]g
As you held me [F]hyp[Gsus4] notized[F][G]
[C]The day had promised true lov[Em]e[Am]

[Verse 5]
Smiles [Am]awaken as we [Dm]share
Our golden slumbers long gone
[Bb]Only you and [Am]I wer[C]e there
And [Am]now, Honey, I'm not the same
'Cause [Dm]you made a brand new me,
[Gsus4]yes

[Verse 6]
[C]
If I were a [Em]bell, [Cm]baby, I would ring
[C]Tell the whole world that you
are my [Bb]everything[Am]
[C]If I were a bell, [Cm]baby,
you would [Eb]know[Cm]
[C]That you are my only lover
an[G]d it's [Csus4]wonderful[C]
If I [F]were a bell, baby
I would [Fm]ring from the hilltops
[Em]Ring from each and every day mountain[Gm]side,
[Csus4]yes, oh
[C]If I [F]were a bell
Baby, I would [Fm]ring through every valley
[Em]Tell the whole world 'bout
these tears [Gsus4]of joy I cry[F][C]
If I were your [Em]bell
[G]Baby, [Ddim]I would ring[Abdim]
each day [C]for you

[Interlude 1]
[C][Ab][G][C]

[Verse 7]
And [G]no one
Could ever tell me what to think,
to feel, [C]to say or do
Listen, [Abdim]sugar[Dbm]
[Ab]I'm gonn[G]a sing about you one more time
[C]If I were a bell,
If I were a bell [Cm]baby,
I would ring... [Eb]Baby, [Cm]I
[C]Tell the whole world that you
are [Bb]my e[Am]verything
[Dm]If I[C] were a bell,
If I were a bell [Cm]baby, you would know
Baby, only you [C]would know
That you are my only lover and
it's [Csus4]wonderful[C]
If I [F]were a bell
Baby, I would ring [Em]each [Dm]day for
[C]you...[Dm][Gsus4][F][Gsus4]
[F]Just for[C] you

[Verse 8]
I guess that's not a mature thing for [Cm]me to say,
baby
I'm just gonna let the bells talk for [C]me
As the flicker turns to flame
and passion rises [Bb]hot
I have no choice but [Am]to carry the
choice, but [Dm]to carry a[A] torch[C]
Come here, [Cm]Honey
Let me make [C]it all right

[Verse 9]
I'm gonna ring [C]for you,
[G]baby[Csus4]
You know the [C]part, [F]baby
And it's from the heart,
It's from the heart
It's from [Em]my soul,
From my soul
[Dm]I ring for you
[F]I rin[Gsus4]g for you[C], oh[F]
[Gsus4]Just for you,
[C]Just for you,
[C]Just [C]for you, just

[Verse 10]
[C]Oh, [C]baby, I still do
Tell the world I'm ringin' for [Am]my baby,
I'm ringin' [C]for you
