Water And Bridges

There's [G]things I[D/F#] know I
[Em]should have mentioned [D]sooner
But I [C]didn't[D] know how
I'm [G]sorry I[D/F#] lost you
I [Em]never thought that [D]this
could come be[C]tween us
I [D]know its[G] water an[D/F#]d bridges now
But [Em]what's the sense
in [D]carrying [C]around
This [D]weight These[C] words
are [D]tearing me apart

[G]   [Bm]   [C]   [Em]   [C]   [G]

[G]  And that's enough for
the back to break
[Bm]  That's an awful [C]lot to take
But [Em]I've been paying [C]for
it since I [G]drove my girl away
[G]  And that's the sign
of a solemn man
[Bm]  I'll make the best of
the [C]best I can
And [Em]I'll be better [C]for it
if I [G]ever get my chance

[G]   [D/F#]   [Em]   [D]   [C]   [D]

That [G]face I[D/F#] know [Em]exactly
what you're [D]thinking
But I'm [C]certain this
[D]time is[G] different
And [D/F#]that's why I [Em]can't pretend
that [D]everything is[C] mended
I [D]know I've[G] tried to
for [D/F#]too long now
But [Em]what's the sense
in [D]carrying [C]around
This [D]weight
These [C]words are
[D]tearing us apart

(Repeat Chorus 1)

[Em]  Oh [D]save[G] me from [C]a gray life
[Em]  Oh [D]save[G] me from [C]a gray life
[Em]  I've [D]paid the[G] price
with my [C]sou[Em]l Oh[D] sav[C]e me

[G]   [Em]   [D]   [C]   [Bm]   [C]   [D]

[G]  And that's enough for
the back to break
[Bm]  That's an awful [C]lot to take
But [Em]I've been paying [C]for
it since I [G]drove my girl away
[Em]  And that's the sign
of a solemn man
[Bm]  I'll make the best of
the [C]best I can
And [Em]I'll be better [C]for it
if I [G]ever get my chance
If I ever get my chance
If I ever get my chance
If I ever get my chance
