[Verse 1]
A E Bm D A E Bm
I can see you looking back, wondering what it is we've done
A E Bm D D C#m F#m
We had no choice but to set this fire, there's nothing left to do but burn
[Chorus]
A E Bm D A E Bm
The bridge is burning, the bridge is burning, every story has to end
A E Bm D D C#m F#m E
The bridge is burning, the bridge is burning, we'll never go back there again
[Bridge 1]
G F# Bm A E
Through the smoke I can see the old stone houses of my past
G F# Bm A E
Where the day to day goes too slow and friends grow old too fast
A A/G# F#m Bm E
Now that we are free at last, our world can be everything
[Chorus]
A E Bm D A E Bm
The bridge is burning, the bridge is burning, every story has to end
A E Bm D D C#m F#m E
The bridge is burning, the bridge is burning, we'll never go back there again
[Bridge 2]
G F# Bm A E
They can stop trying to break us down and wound our heart with pride
G F# Bm A E
We can't make them believe in what we are deep down inside
A A/G# F#m Bm E
If we didn't have to hide, our world could be everything, yeah
