[Verse 1]
Earlier today, Amnesty International
Announced a worldwide tour to celebrate
The fortieth anniversary of the Declaration of Human Rights
The Declaration of Human Rights is a document
It was signed by every government in the world
Forty years ago, recognizing the existence
Of certain inalienable human rights for everyone
Regardless of your race, your color, your sex, your religion
Your political opinion or the type of government that you're livin' under
I was glad to be asked to participate
And I'm proud to join Sting and Peter Gabriel
Youssou N'Dour, Tracy Chapman, in a tour that's gonna begin in early September
That's gonna run for about six weeks
So, I'd like to dedicate this next song
To the people of Amnesty International
And their idea
So when we come to your town
Come on out
Support the tour
Support human rights for everyone now
And let freedom ring
[Verse 2]
Well, far between sundown's finish and midnight's broken toll
We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashing
As majestic bells of boats struck shadows in the sun
Saying it may be the chimes of freedom crashing
[Verse 3]
Flashing for the warriors, whose strength is not to fight
Flashing for the refugees on their unarmed road of flight
And for each and every underdog soldier in the night
We gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
[Verse 4]
Well, in the city's melted furnace, unexpectedly we watched
With faces hidden here while the walls were tightening
As the echo of the wedding bells before the blowing rain
Dissolved into the wild bales of lightning
[Verse 5]
Yeah, tollin' for the rebel, yeah, tollin' for the raked
Tollin' for the luckless, the abandoned, and forsaken
Yeah, tollin' for the outcasts burning constantly at stakes
And we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashin'
[Verse 6]
Alright, guys!
[Verse 7]
And then through a cloud-like curtain in a far-off corner flashed
There's a hypnotic, splattered mist was slowly liftin'
Well, electric light still struck like arrows
Fired, but for the ones
Condemned to drift or else be kept from driftin'
[Verse 8]
Well, tolling for the searching ones on this speechless, secret trail
For the lonesome haunted lovers with too personal a tale
And for each young heart for each channeled soul, misplaced inside a jail
Yeah, we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
[Verse 9]
Well, starry-eyed and laughing, I recall when we were caught
Trapped by an old track of vows for the hands suspended
As we listened one last time and we watched with one last look
Spellbound and swallowed "Has the tolling ended?"
[Verse 10]
Yeah, tollin' for the aching ones whose wounds cannot be nursed
For the countless, confused, accused, misused, strung-out ones at worst
And for every hung out person in the whole wide universe
Yeah, we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
[Verse 11]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh
