The Bridge The Loved Ones
This is my favorite song by this great band, it's pretty catchy and simple, hope you like it!
NOTE: all chords are to be played major unless pointed differently
Intro: just pick up the strumming, it's pretty easy
[E-E-B-C#]E-E-E-B(fade)
Verse:
[E]On the bridge made of stone
[E]Stands a man all alone
[B]The bridge was his motivation
[C#]It worked him to the bone
[E]With every nail that he drove, [E]it drove him farther from his own
[B]In his punishing isolation, [C#]but the bridge just feels like home
E-E-E-B(fade)
[E]She didn't feel quite the same
[E]She despised the bridge and who he became
[B]She left in devastation
[C#]She left him there in shame
[E]He said, "I don't understand,[E] this was not part of the plan..."
[B]But it got lost in the translation
[C#]Like a castle made of sand
A-B-A-B(down strokes, build up on the last chord)
(I recomend power chords for the chorus, starting with your E on the 5th string)
[E]In all the years he's spen[B]t struggling
[C#]He's been haunted at every[A] turn[B-A-B]
[E]He fights the fear as he's[B] growing old
[C#]And reminds us in all the [A]he's learned
That we build and burn
[E-E-E-E]Burn!
Burn!
Burn!
Burn!
Interlude:
[E-E-E-B-C#-A]
E-E-B-C#(verse)
[E]Here I am all alone
[E]On that bridge made of stone
[B]With smothering motivation, I'm[C#] working to the bone
[E]In the end it's what I've known
[E]It's what I hate, but have to show
[B]The bridge is my dedication; t[C#]he bridge just feels like home
A-B-A-B(down strokes)
[E]In all the years I've been[B] struggling
[C#]I've been haunted at every[A] turn[B-A-B]
[E]I fight the fear as I'm gr[B]owing old
[C#]And remembering all that I[A]'ve learned
That we build and burn
[E]In all the years he's spen[B]t struggling
[C#]He's been haunted at every[A] turn[B-A-B]
[E]He fights the fear as he's[B] growing old
[C#]And reminds us in all the [A]he's learned
That we build and burn
E-E-E-E(fade)
Burn!
Burn!
Burn!
Enjoy!
