 (F - ending chord of introduction)
 All  the bridges that you burn
 Come  back one day to haunt you
 One  day you'll find you're walking
 
Lo-----nely
 
 
 Baby  I Am
 Never meant to hurt you
 Sometimes  the best intentions
 Still  don't make things right
 
 
 But  all  my ghosts they find me
 Like  my  past they think they own me
 In  dreams and dark corners they surround me
 Till  I cry I  cry
 Let  me take  this time to set  the record straight
 Let  me take  this time to  take it all back
 Let  me take  this time to tell  you how I felt
 Let  me take  this time to try  and make it right
 
 
 All  the bridges that you burn
 Come  back one day to haunt you
 One  day you'll find you're walking
 
Lo-----nely
 But  you can
 Walk  away
 Be  all alone
 Spend  all your time
 Thinking  about the way things  used to be
 If  love feels right
 You  work it out
 You  don't give it up
 Ba---by
 Anybody  tell you that
 Anybody  tell you that
 Anybody  tell you that
 You  should take  some time maybe  sleep on it tonight
 You  should take  some time baby  hear the words I said
 You  should take  some time  think about your life
 You  should take  some time before  you throw it all away
 
 
 All  the bridges that you burn
 Come  back one day to haunt you
 One  day you'll find you're walking
 
Lo-----nely
 I  ain't got  the time
 To  sit here and wait around
 But  I got the  time
 If  you say I'm what you want
 All  the bridges that you burn
 Come  back one day to haunt you
 One  day you'll find you're walking
 
Lo-----nely
