[Verse 1]
D MajorD
And so,
(D MajorD)
That's how
(B minorBm
Stories like this usually start
         G+G
Fast forward to a broken heart

[Verse 2]
And then a rainy day
And the memory of your smile
Takes me over and sets me back down
Tells me to stay true in all this

[Chorus]
  D MajorD
You can't un-ring a bell
(D MajorD)
You can't un-tell a story
  B minorBm
You can't un-break a heart
  G+G
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
  D MajorD
If there's a chance in hell
(D MajorD)
For a moment's glory
   B minorBm
I'll be so glad to tell you
  G+G
I'm sorry, I'm sorry

[Instrumental]
G+G

[Verse 3]
And so, it seems
As though our song is sung
It's over now
What's done is done
[Verse 4]
But if it takes a while
That you remain
Partial to a moment when
You and I might make amends

[Chorus]
You can't un-ring a bell
You can't un-tell a story
You can't un-break a heart
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
If there's a chance in hell
For a moment's glory
I'll be so glad to tell you
I'm sorry, I'm sorry

[Bridge]
  G+G
Oh can it come the moment of the fallen down, the pickin' up
   A augmentedA
The pieces we long to repair
    G+G
Can the kindness of your strong heart make a harbour for a man's mistakes
  A augmentedA
To ghosts in her eyes to have cleared

[Chorus]
(No guitar on this part of the chorus)
You can't un-ring a bell
You can't un-tell a story
You can't un-break a heart
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
(Guitar starts again here)
You can't un-ring a bell
You can't un-tell a story
You can't un-break a heart
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
If there's a chance in hell
For a moment's glory
I'll be so glad to tell you
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I'm sorry, I'm sorry

[Outro]
G+G

[End on
