Church Bells Chords
Carrie Underwood



Intro: Bm  A  x2

 Bm
Jenny grew up wild, like a blackfoot daisy

 A
Out in the shack with a blue tick hound

 G
Broke as hell, but blessed with beauty

   A
The kind that a rich man can't turn down

   Bm
She caught the eye of an oil man dancing

 A
One summer night in a dime store dress

 G
She had the looks, he had the mansion

 A
And you can figure out the rest


 Bm
He was all roses, dripping in diamonds, sipping on champagne

 Bm                               A
She was all uptown, wearing that white gown, taking his last name


           G
She could hear those church bells ringing, ringing

 D             Bm
And up in the loft, that whole choir singing, singing

 A                 G
Fold your hands and close your eyes

              D
Yeah, it's all gonna be alright

            Bm
And just listen to the church bells ringing, ringing

 A         Bm
Yeah, they're ringing


 Bm
Jenny was hosting Junior League parties

 A
And having dinner at the country club

 G
Everyone thought they were Ken and Barbie

 A
But Ken was always getting way too drunk

 Bm
Saturday night, after a few too many

 A
He came home ready to fight

 G
And all his money could never save Jenny

 A
From the devil living in his eyes


 Bm
It was all bruises, covered in makeup, dark sunglasses

 Bm                                 A
And that next morning, sitting in the back pew, praying with the baptist


           G
She could hear those church bells ringing, ringing

 D             Bm
And up in the loft, that whole choir singing, singing

 A                 G
Fold your hands and close your eyes

              D
Yeah, it's all gonna be alright

            Bm
And just listen to the church bells ringing, ringing

 A         G    Bm   G   Bm   G
Yeah, they're ringing


 Bm
Jenny slipped something in his Tennessee whiskey

 A
No law man was ever gonna find

 G
And how he died is still a mystery

 A
But he hit a woman for the very last time


           G
She could hear those church bells ringing, ringing

 D             Bm
Standing there in a black dress singing, singing

 A                 G
Fold your hands and close your eyes

              D
Yeah, it's all gonna be alright

            Bm
And just listen to the church bells ringing, ringing

 A        B
Yeah, they're ringing
