The Bridge Chris de Burgh
Intro:
[A] [E] [F#m] [E]
[A] [E] [F#m] [B] [E]
They stood [E]on the bridge together
And w[A]atched the river fl[B]ow
And to pl[E]edge themselves forever
A pl[F#m]ace where lovers g[B]o
To f[A]ix a lock up[E]on the bridge
And [B]each would have a k[C#m]ey
That t[A]old of th[B]eir et[E]ernal love[C#m]
The w[A]ay that [B]it must b[E]e
And w[C#m]ith this key, she s[Abm]aid I give
My s[A]oul, my love, my h[B]eart
And [C#m]if the lock should g[Abm]o from here
Then [A]I will know that w[B]e must p[E]art
Oh but s[E]oon he had to leave her
To be a s[A]oldier far aw[B]ay
And she would g[E]o down to the cathedral
And [F#m]every morning pr[B]ay
To l[A]ight a candle for h[E]er love
To br[B]ing him safely h[C#m]ome
But [A]on the d[B]ay the l[E]etter came[C#m]
She kn[A]ew that h[B]e was g[E]one
With tr[C#m]embling hands, she [Abm]opened it
To r[A]ead the words which s[B]aid
"It [C#m]is with deep regr[Abm]et we must
Inf[A]orm you that he's m[B]issing, believ[E]ed dead"
[C#m] [Abm] [A] [B]
[C#m] [Abm] [A] [B] [E]
She stood [E]on the bridge at midnight
And w[A]atched the river fl[B]ow
And the l[E]ock was in her fingers
Into the w[F#m]ater she would g[B]o
But [A]in the distance h[E]eard a voice
C[B]alling out her n[C#m]ame
And [A]as he r[B]an to h[E]er, she f[C#m]ell
[A]In his [B]arms ag[E]ain
And w[C#m]ith this key I g[Abm]ave, he said
My s[A]oul, my love, my h[B]eart
And wh[C#m]en I saw the l[Abm]ock was gone
I kn[A]ew that we could n[B]ever be [E]apart
[C#m] [Abm] [A] [B]
[C#m] [Abm] [A] [B] [E]
[A] [E] [F#m] [E]
[A] [E] [F#m]
W[B]e will never p[E]art...
