Verse 1:
DbEbm/Gb
I've seen the bridge and the bridge is long

And they built it high and they built it strong

Strong enough to hold the weight of time
Absus4Ab
Long enough to leave some of us behind
Chorus:
BbmGb
And every one of us has to face that day
AbFm/C
Do you cross the bridge or do you fade away
GbGbm/A
And every one of us that ever came to play
DbAbsus4Dbsus4
Has to cross the bridge or fade away

Seen so many jump, never seen one saved
BbmGb
On a distant beach your song can die
Absus4Ab
On a bitter wind, on a cruel tide
Chorus:
BbmGb
And every one of us has to face that day
AbFm/C
Do you cross the bridge or do you fade away

And every one of us that ever came to play

And the bridge it shines
GbBbm
Oh cold hard iron
Gb
Saying come and risk it all

Or die trying
Solo
