Hate to be so negative, but their songs are not to be ruined by wrong chords!
So here it is, Ringing Bells as it should be:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Intro: There are three ways of playing the intro.
Alt. 1:
You play all notes yourself. ("(x)" indicates a less audible note)
e|------------------------9-----------------------------------9-----------|
B|---------10--------9h10-----10p9h10----------10--------9h10-----10p9h10-|
G|-----------(9)---------------------------------(9)-------------------9--|
D|----9h11-----(11)-----------------------9h11-----(11)-------------------|
A|-12-------------(9)------(9)---------12--------------9-------(9)--------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
(Hold down the 9th fret on each string like a C# barre chord)
Alt. 2:
Two guitars where guitar 1 plays this:
e|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----9h11--------------------------------9h11----------------------------|
A|-12-------------(9)------(9)---------12--------------9-------(9)--------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
And guitar 2 plys this:
e|------------------------9-----------------------------------9-----------|
B|---------10--------9h10-----10p9h10----------10--------9h10-----10p9h10-|
G|-----------(9)---------------------------------(9)-------------------9--|
D|-------------(11)--------------------------------(11)-------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Alt. 3:
If you're on your own and alt. 1 is too hard, just play the "main" notes:
e|------------------------9-----------------------------------9-----------|
B|---------10--------9h10-----10p9h10----------10--------9h10-----10p9h10-|
G|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----9h11--------------------------------9h11----------------------------|
A|-12----------------------------------12---------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
The chords for the intro are: A - F#m - A - F#m
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Verse:
A                F#m      A                F#m
Stick around your neck and see what it can bring
E                 D               A         F#m
Lonely stands the butcher on the ground
A             F#m  A             F#m
Little angel fly, fly among the stars
E            D                A         A7
Jupiter will comfort you with love
Chorus:
D                E
So who are you gonna follow
C#             F#m
Are you going out somewhere
B7                    E7
Can it be the new thing money enough
D                   E
Where's that hat you loved once
C#            F#m
Let us spoil it for a day
B7                      E7
Bring 'em in she said just for a day
|A    F#m    A    F#m| x2
Just for a day
Verse:
A              F#m A               F#m
On the way to you between busy moon
E              D               A    F#m
Crash beneath a window left in bloom
A                F#m       A             F#m
The days are few my friend and winter comes again
E                 D         A    A7
Clap, clap and the boy is to lose
Chorus...
Outro: A and F#m alongside the intro riff. Finish with F#m.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's another "campfire" version of the intro, made for a solo acoustic guitar. It was
by UG for whatever reason so I thought I put it here.
e|-9--------------------------9--------------|
B|-10--10-----10---10----9h10-10----10----10-|
G|-9---9------9----9-----11---11----11----11-|
D|-11--9h11-----11-------11------11----11----|
A|-12------------------9---------9-----9-----|
E|-------------------------------------------|
A capo on the 9th fret will help a lot.
