CAPO 1ST FRET: KEY:Eb PLAY:D
D
I lost my job in Saginaw
G
Working on the railroad
D
After twenty years
BbmE7A7
They just put me on the side
D
Now I'm hungry in the street
GGm
With no place to hang my hat
DA7D
And nothin' but an empty dream to ride
But,
(CHORUS):
D
Under the bridge
D7G
I can make believe I'm living in a castle
DBb7E7A7
Under the bridge, my baby and me
DD7
And I can pretend that I'm a king
GGm
And this is my kingdom
DA7D
Under the bridge, making beleive
(INSTRUMENTAL)
D
Hey, the doors are always open
G
To any old weary traveller
D
And you'll find some great grub
BbmE7A7
Feedin' here below
DD7
Any old bridge can be a palace
GGm
Call it what you wan't to
DA7D
It's a place to be when you got no place to go
(CHORUS)
