Intro..... C Am C Am C

Yesterday she thanked me for oilin that front door This morning when she wakes she won't be thankful anymore She'll never know how much I cared just that I couldn't stay And I'll never know the reason why I always run away

Chorus.... Burning bridges one by one What I'm doing can't be undone And I'm always hoping someday I'm gonna stop this runnin' around But every time the chance comes up Another bridge goes down

Last night we talked of old times Families & home towns She wondered if we'd both agree On where we'd settle down And I told her that we'd cross that bridge Whenever it arrived Now thru the flames I see her Standin on the other side

Chorus....

Like ashes on the water I drift away in sorrow Knowing that the day my lesson's finaly learned I'll be standin at a river staring out across tomorrow And the bridge I need to get there Will be a bridge that I have burned

Chorus....
