Verse
Cm G#
Born in a sorry cot, left on the stairs of the cold stone
A# G7
Damned to be scorned, in darkness, damned to be alone
Cm G#
Taken by the church, his soul will be a slave of God
A# G7
In the belfry's beauty is his figure something odd
[Pre-Chorus 1]
G# D# A# Cm
We see the hunchback in Notre Dame
G# D# A# G7
Dancing on the tallest to-wers
Cm G7 A# Dm
Arcades and spires, filling his heart
Cm G7 A# F
Deep like the choir, fine like the art
Cm G7
Is the place my cell, is it?
A# F
Is God's home my hell?
G# D# F
Oh, my body imprisons my poor soul
G7
Until I toll
[Chorus]
Cm G#
I am grim, full of gloom
A# D#
In my dim gothic tomb
G# D# Fm
But the bells in my heart chime forever
Cm G#
With the ding that be-longs
A# D#
To the king of their songs
G# D# A# Cm
I'm the sound of Notre Dame
[Verse 2]
Cm G#
In the wheel of life, he is a horror for the crowd
A# G7
When will be the time he'll see the sun between the clouds?
Cm G#
Looking at the bells he thinks about his tragic fate
A# G7
Wants to be a rock or metal like his soulless mates
[Pre-Chorus 2]
G# D# A# Cm
We hear the hunchback in Notre Dame
G# D# A# G7
Crying on the tallest to-wers
Cm G7 A# Dm
Gargoyles and columns, his reality
Cm G7 A# F
Chants which are solemn, his agony
Cm G7
Is the place my cell, is it?
A# F
Is God's home my hell?
G# D# F
Oh, my body imprisons my poor soul
G7
Until I toll
[Chorus]
Cm G#
I am grim, full of gloom
A# D#
In my dim gothic tomb
G# D# Fm
But the bells in my heart chime forever
Cm G#
With the ding that belongs
A# D#
To the king of their songs
G# D# A#
I'm the sound of Notre Dame
(Repeat to End)
