            YOU STOLE MY BELL
            ELVIS COSTELLO

INTRO:
C majorC C C majorC C FF C majorC DmDm FF F FF


VERSE:
       C majorC
There is a place
         C7C7 FF
Underneath the staircase
         C majorC
Where I keep the evidence
          C7C7  DmDm
Of what once would offer peace

PRE-CHORUS:
   Bb majorBb       DmDm
In a deep blue velvet box filled with joy and pride
 G minorGm
Should I pick the locks?
 D MajorD        G+G
Should I peek inside?

 C majorC          E minorEm
Can I stand the sight of those happy days?
 A minorAm            E MajorE     A augmentedA  D MajorD
Should I strike a match, burn them all away?


CHORUS:
       G+G  D MajorD  E minorEm      FF  C majorC  D MajorD
`Cause you stole my bell and you broke my chime
     B minorBm      E minorEm      FF   C majorC  D MajorD
And the clock spins `round but it won`t keep time
      E minorEm     B minorBm      C majorC         A minorAm
There are many lovely girls in this cold and loveless world

   G+G       E minorEm
But not one is the equal of you,
 C majorC        A minorAm
Heaven knows how much I love you

 G+G       E minorEm
Not one is the equal of you,
 C majorC        A minorAm      FF F FF
Heaven knows how much I love you

VERSE:
      C majorC
So here we are
         Fsus4Fsus4   FF
But it`s not quite like we thought
          C majorC
Those things were priceless then
         FF    DmDm
Now I know they can`t be bought


PRE-CHORUS:
   Bb majorBb          FF
In a deep blue velvet box fastened with a pin
 G minorGm
Should I lift the lid?
 D MajorD       G+G
Should I look within?

 C majorC          E minorEm
Was it my last chance or my first mistake?
AM         E MajorE     A augmentedA   D MajorD
Is it just a step that we`ll never take?


CHORUS:
       G+G  D MajorD  E minorEm       FF  C majorC  D MajorD
`Cause you stole my bell then you broke my chime
     B minorBm      E minorEm      FF   C majorC  D MajorD
Now the clock spins `round but it won`t keep time
      E minorEm     B minorBm      C majorC         A minorAm  A minorAm
There are many lovely girls in this cold and loveless world

   G+G       E minorEm
But not one is the equal of you,
 C majorC        A minorAm
Heaven knows how much I love you

 G+G       E minorEm
Not one is the equal of you,
 C majorC        A minorAm
Heaven knows how much I love you

 G+G       E minorEm
Not one is the equal of you,
 C majorC        A minorAm      A minorAm
Heaven knows how much I love you
