The Bridge

C


[Verse 1]
     C                       Am
They say there's a bridge up there
Dm       C           G
Up there in the mist
C                   Am
Some will deny it's there
Dm          C                      G
Others will tell you it don't even exist


[Verse 2]
         F           C   G         Am
It's not made of iron or steel nor stone
       Dm        C      G
Yet it spans the rising waters
F      G                     Am
We are but bags of blood and bone
      Dm               C               G
If we carry the weight of our sons and our daughters


[Chorus]
    F        C         G      Am
And now that feels are rather drowned
       Dm       C      G
And we climb up to the ridge
F         G               Am
Some will seek the higher ground
Dm         G          C
Some of us the bridge


[Verse 3]
   C             Am G
If all is bеhind us now
  Dm       C       G
Beneath us swollen rivеr
    C              G        Am
The bridge we will find somehow
Dm   C                  G
Only then we would be delivered


[Verse 4]
       F         C        G    Am
Though some will claim to be inclined
       Dm      C          G
It's a figment or a ghost
        F         G               Am
But the bridge is deep inside the mind
Dm        C       G
Invisible to most


[Chorus]
    F       C          G   Am
And now the city's all but drowned
    Dm    C       G
And here upon the ridge
F         G               Am
Some will seek the higher ground
Dm         G          C
Some of us the bridge


[Outro]
F              G          Am
We'll open the gates that we may follow
Dm       C         G
Open the bridge to all of us
F             G    Am
Open the floodgate to the river
Dm       C           G            C
Open the bridge that we may cross
