- 3Loop the bar that keeps breaking until it feels easy, then add the left hand and take the speed back up.
LYRICS
I’ve (D)seen the bridge, and the (Em)bridge is long.
And they (A)built it high, and they (G)built it strong, strong e (Bm)nough to hold the (Em)weight of time, long e (D)nough to leave some of (A)us be hind.
And ev ’ry one of us has to face that day; do you (A)cross the bridge, or do you (F#m)fade a way?
And ev ’ry (G)one of us that ev er (Gm)came to play has to (D)cross the bridge or (A)fade
a way.
(Em)Stand ing (D)on the bridge look ing (Em)at the waves, seen so (A)man y jump; nev er (G)seen one saved.
On a (Bm)dis tant beach, your (Em)song can die on a (D)bit ter wind, on a (A)cru el tide.
And ev ’ry one of us has to face that day; do you (A)cross the bridge, or do you (F#m)fade a way?
And ev ’ry (G)one of us that ev er (Gm)came to play has to (D)cross the bridge or (A)fade
a way.
(Em)Stand ing
And the (G)bridge, it shines,
all (G)cold hard iron,
say ing, (Em7)“Come and risk it all
or die (D)try
(A)ing.”
And ev ’ry (Bm)one of us has to (Em7)face that day; do you (A)cross the bridge, or do you (F#m)fade a way?
And ev ’ry (G)one of us that ev er (Gm)came to play has to (D)cross the bridge or (A)fade
a way,
has to (D)cross the bridge or (A)fade
a way.
