           E 
They stood on the bridge together 
     A                  B 
And watched the river flow 
         E 
And to pledge themselves forever 
    F#m               B 
A place where lovers go 

    A           E 
To fix a lock upon the bridge 
    B                  C#m 
And each would have a key 
      A        B     E         C#m 
That told of their eternal love 
     A       B        E 
The way that it must be 

     C#m                Abm 
And with this key, she said I give 
    A                 B 
My soul, my love, my heart 
    C#m                 Abm 
And if the lock should go from here 
     A                 B       E 
Then I will know that we must part 

        E 
Oh but soon he had to leave her 
         A            B 
To be a soldier far away 
               E 
And she would go down to the cathedral 
    F#m             B 
And every morning pray 

    A                  E 
To light a candle for her love 
     B               C#m 
To bring him safely home 
    A       B       E         C#m 
But on the day the letter came 
      A        B      E 
She knew that he was gone 

       C#m                Abm 
With trembling hands, she opened it 
    A                    B 
To read the words which said 
    C#m              Abm 
'It is with deep regret we must 
   A                  B             E 
Inform you that he's missing, believed dead'

          E 
She stood on the bridge at midnight 
     A                  B 
And watched the river flow 
         E 
And the lock was in her fingers 
          F#m             B 
Into the water she would go 

    A                E 
But in the distance heard a voice 
 B               C#m 
Calling out her name 
    A      B      E        C#m 
And as he ran to her, she fell 
A      B      E 
In his arms again 

     C#m             Abm 
And with this key I gave, he said 
    A                 B 
My soul, my love, my heart 
      C#m           Abm 
And when I saw the lock was gone 
    A                 B       E 
I knew that we could never be apart
