Tuned bell sounds
Chimes are a set of tuned bells or metal tubes struck to produce musical tones.
Wind chimes hang outdoors and ring when the breeze moves them.
Door chimes sound when someone arrives.
A clock chimes the hour.
The verb extends to voices joining in: Several others chimed in with their opinions.
Things that chime together harmonize or agree: Her views chimed with mine.
