what a sound
ooh the bells are ringing out
what a sound
and I'm in love
and I'm in love
the joy of love
the coming of
Jesus
Jesus
did you call my name
I never ever felt afraid
did you hold onto
did you make it thru
you
there's so much doubt in every heart
for all our faults we carry on
Jesus
Jesus I ran away
I got so scared
I made mistakes
will I hold onto
will I make it thru
Ooh the bells are ringing out
what a sound

James Iha: (from Guitar World)
-
"I wrote this two or three years ago, and each instrument was recorded
about six or seven
months apart-not really on purpose, but just as a demo that kept growing.
I recorded the acoustic
guitars at my old apartment, and then, after I moved, I recorded Eric
Remschneider's cello part in
my basement. Then, for this single, I had another friend, Adam
Schlesinger (of Fountains of
Wayne and Ivy), play piano, and then D'Arcy and I did the vocals. I like
the song because it is
very simple but has a twist in the time signatures-sort of in the Nick
Drake style."
