	        every bridge that you keep on burning 
  
every   
C#  
leaf that you keep on turning 
every road that you find uncertain 
pray for you now 
  
baby that   
G#  
you?ll figure it out 
as you keep 
chasing the light 
  
remember   
C#  
back when you slept on my floor 
D#  
blow up mattress down by the door 
  
10 pounds heavier   
A#m  
from wasted time 
we didn?t know we were way out of line 
from the moment that you popped out on the scene 
  
hard to know what you got or you?re meant   
D#  
to  
  
be 
everything that you know goes flying 
C#  
from jonny o?s couch to a gypsy bus island 
holding hands with people in life 
  
till they walk away saying no good   
A#m  
byes 
  
and you keep saying that you?re   
C#  
running down a dream 
but you don?t know where it leads 
  
as you keep chasing the   
A#m  
light 
  
every bridge that you keep on   
C#  
burning 
every leaf that you keep on turning 
every road that you find uncertain 
pray for you now 
baby that you?ll figure it out 
every hope and dream thats dying 

every time that i see you crying 
every step that you keep on climbing 
pray for you now 
baby that you figure it out 
  
as   
G#  
you  
  
keep 
chasing the light 
  
C#  
  
got the call   
G#  
that you   
C#  
sent out yesterday 
40 lines and a fallout holiday 
  
on my knees with the   
G#  
weight that   
A#m  
was  
  
mine 
  
think about you when i?m   
C#  
driving at night 
familiar sounds and it takes me right back there 
  
bridge street and the   
A#m  
beat in   
G#  
the summer   
A#m  
air 
  
was it easier   
C#  
to watch your feet 
and never deal with the hell that a young boy sees 
  
where liquor runs thicker than   
G#  
blood 
  
on your own when   
C#  
push comes to shove 
before we had these mouths to feed 
  
with innocent dreams?   
G#  
while you keep 
chasing the light 
  
every bridge   
A#m  
that  
  
  
C#  
you keep on burning 
every leaf that you keep on turning 
  
every road that you   
G#  
find  
  
uncertain 
A#m  
pray for you now 
  
baby that   
C#  
you?ll figure it out 
every hope and dream thats dying 

  
every time that   
G#  
i see   
A#m  
you  
  
crying 
G#  
every step that you keep on   
C#  
climbing 
pray for you now 
baby that you figure it out 
as you keep 
chasing the light 
remember hearing dylan?s first songs first 

  
we were running   
A#m  
down franklin high school lights 
  
burning alive in   
C#  
a chevrolet night 
  
remember   
G#m  
driving out to salton sea 
dreaming bout all we thought we?d be 
  
one way tickets   
C#  
into southern lights 
slammed the door and said goodbye, goodbye
