Verse
Fm C#
Born in a sorry cot, left on the stairs of the cold stone
D# C7
Damned to be scorned, in darkness, damned to be alone
Fm C#
Taken by the church, his soul will be a slave of God
D# C7
In the belfry's beauty is his figure something odd
[Pre-Chorus 1]
C# G# D# Fm
We see the hunchback in Notre Dame
C# G# D# C7
Dancing on the tallest to-wers
Fm C7 D# Gm
Arcades and spires, filling his heart
Fm C7 D# A#
Deep like the choir, fine like the art
Fm C7
Is the place my cell, is it?
D# A#
Is God's home my hell?
C# G# A#
Oh, my body imprisons my poor soul
C7
Until I toll
[Chorus]
Fm C#
I am grim, full of gloom
D# G#
In my dim gothic tomb
C# G# A#m
But the bells in my heart chime forever
Fm C#
With the ding that be-longs
D# G#
To the king of their songs
C# G# D# Fm
I'm the sound of Notre Dame
[Verse 2]
Fm C#
In the wheel of life, he is a horror for the crowd
D# C7
When will be the time he'll see the sun between the clouds?
Fm C#
Looking at the bells he thinks about his tragic fate
D# C7
Wants to be a rock or metal like his soulless mates
[Pre-Chorus 2]
C# G# D# Fm
We hear the hunchback in Notre Dame
C# G# D# C7
Crying on the tallest to-wers
Fm C7 D# Gm
Gargoyles and columns, his reality
Fm C7 D# A#
Chants which are solemn, his agony
Fm C7
Is the place my cell, is it?
D# A#
Is God's home my hell?
C# G# A#
Oh, my body imprisons my poor soul
C7
Until I toll
[Chorus]
Fm C#
I am grim, full of gloom
D# G#
In my dim gothic tomb
C# G# A#m
But the bells in my heart chime forever
Fm C#
With the ding that belongs
D# G#
To the king of their songs
C# G# D#
I'm the sound of Notre Dame
