Am C F C
Yesterday she thanked me for oilin that front door
Dm C F G
This morning when she wakes she won't be thankful anymore
Am C F C
She'll never know how much I cared just that I couldn't stay
Dm C F G
And I'll never know the reason why I always run away
F C
Burning bridges one by one
G Am F G C
What I'm doing can't be undone
G Am C
And I'm always hoping someday
F C
I'm gonna stop this runnin' around
Dm C
But every time the chance comes up
F C Dm7 G C Am C
Another bridge goes down
last night we talked of old times
Families & home towns
She wondered if we'd both agree
On where we'd settle down
And I told her that we'd cross that bridge
Whenever it arrived
Now thru the flames I see her
standin on the other side
chorus....
G Am C F C
Like ashes on the water I drift away in sorrow
Dm C F G
Knowing that the day my lesson's finaly learned
Am C Fmaj7 C
I'll be standin at a river staring out across tomorrow
Dm C
And the bridge I need to get there
Fmaj7 G Am D
Will be a bridge that I have burned
chorus....
