Cm
I found her on the night of fire and noise
Gm
Wild bells rang in a wild sky
Cm
I knew from that moment on
Gm
That I would love her till the day that i died
Cm
And I kissed away a thousand tears
Gm
My lady of the various sorrows
Cm
Some begged, some borrowed, some stolen
Gm
Some kept safe for tomorrow
Cm
On an endless night silver star spangled
     C#                         D
The bells from the chapel went jingle jangle

Chorus:
Cm A#  Gm
Do You love me, (you love me ?)
Cm A#  Gm
Do You love me, (you love me ?)
Cm A#  Gm
Do You love me, (you love me ?)
Cm A#   F
Do You love me
            Gm
Like I love you

She was given to me to put things right
And I stacked all my accomplishments beside her
Yet I seemed so obsolete and small
I found God and all His devils inside her
In my bed she cast the blizzard out
A mock sun blazed upon her head
So completely filled with light she was
Her shadow fanged and hairy and mad
Our love-lines grew hopelessly tangled
And the bells from the chapel went jingle-jangle

Chorus

She had a heart full of love and devotion
She had a mindful of tyranny and terror
Well, I try, I do, I really try
But I just err, baby, I do, I error
So come and find me, my darling one
I'm down to the grounds, the very dregs
Ah, here she comes, blocking the sun
Blood running down the inside of her legs
The moon in the sky is battered and mangled
And the bells from the chapel go jingle-jangle,
jingle-jangle, jingle-jangle, jingle-jangle

Chorus

All things move toward their end
I knew before I met her that I would lose her
I swear I made every effort to be good to her
I made every effort not to abuse her
Crazy bracelets on her wrists and her ankles
And the bells from the chapel go jingle-jangle

Chorus

(Do you love me?)
(Do you love me?)
(Do you love me?)
(Do you love me?)
Like I love you
(Do you love me?)
(Do you love me?)
(Do you love me?)
(Do you love me?)
