Anthem chords by Leonard Cohen
Introduction: Am / G
[Verse 1]
C
The birds they sang
at the break of day
G
Start again
C C7
I heard them say
E7
Don't dwell on what
Am
has passed away
G Gsus4 G5 G7 G
or what is yet to be.
The wars they will C
be fought again
The holy dove G
be caught again C C7
bought and sold E7
and bought again Am
the dove is never free. G Gsus4 G5 G7
[Chorus]
F Bb F
Ring the bells that still can ring.
Bb F
Forget your perfect offering.
C Bb F
There is a crack, a crack, in everything.
Dm G Gsus4 G
That's how the light gets in.
[Verse 2]
We asked for signs C
the signs were sent:
the birth betrayed G
the marriage spent C C7
the widowhood E7
of every government - Am
signs for all to see. G Gsus4 G5 G7
Can't run no more C
with the lawless crowd
while the killers in high places G
say their prayers out loud. C C7
But they've summoned up E7
A thundercloud Am
and they're going to hear from me. G Gsus4 G5 G7
[Chorus]
F Bb F
Ring the bells that still can ring.
Bb F
Forget your perfect offering.

There is a crack, a crack, in everything.
Dm G Gsus4 G
That's how the light gets in.
[Verse 3]
You can add up the parts C
but you won't have the sum
You can strike up the march, G
there is no drum C C7
Every heart E7
to love will come Am
but like a refugee. G Gsus4 G5 G7
[Chorus]
F Bb F
Ring the bells that still can ring.
Bb F
Forget your perfect offering.
C Bb F
There is a crack, a crack, in everything.
Dm G Gsus4 G
That's how the light gets in.

Ring the bells that still can ring.
Bb F
Forget your perfect offering.

There is a crack, a crack, in everything.

That's how the light gets in.
that's how the light gets in
that's how the light gets in
