Build Me A Bridge
Build Me a Bridge
(C. Chamberlain, W. Kirby, W. McCubbin)
Verse I
Gonna build me a bridge, long enough to take me
Somewhere where the past can't chase me
Where that rain and pain will be flowing under
That river of tears can roll like thunder

Chorus
It's gotta be high so I don't look down
It's gotta be strong enough to hold these blues
I’m gonna be gone gone gone when I get through
I’m gonna build me a bridge to get me over you

Verse II
Any zip code, town, or intersection
Girl from you there ain’t no wrong direction
Don’t need no bread crumbs on this road map
When I get to goodbye I don’t wanna go back

Chorus
It's gotta be high so I don't look down
It's gotta be strong enough to hold these blues
I’m gonna be gone gone gone when I get through
I’m gonna build me a bridge to get me over you

I’m gonna build me a bridge to get me over you
I’m gonna build me a bridge to get me over you
I’m gonna build me bridge to get me…
High so I don't look down
It's gotta be strong enough to hold these blues
I’m gonna be gone gone gone when I get through
I’m gonna build me a bridge to get me over you
