Dashboard Confessional - Water And Bridges
Capo 2
G D/F#
There's things I know I
Em D
should have mentioned sooner
C D
But I didn't know how
G D/F#
I'm sorry I lost you
Em D
I never thought that this
C
could come between us
D G D/F#
I know its water and bridges now
Em
But what's the sense
D C
in carrying around
D C
This weight These words
D
are tearing me apart
G - Bm - C - Em - C - G
Chorus 1:
G
And that's enough for
the back to break
Bm C
That's an awful lot to take
Em C
But I've been paying for
G
it since I drove my girl away
G
And that's the sign
of a solemn man
Bm
I'll make the best of
C
the best I can
Em C
And I'll be better for it
G
if I ever get my chance
G - D/F# - Em - D - C - D
Verse 3:
G D/F# Em
That face I know exactly
D
what you're thinking
C
But I'm certain this
D G
time is different
D/F# Em
And that's why I can't pretend
D C
that everything is mended
D G
I know I've tried to
D/F#
for too long now
Em
But what's the sense
D C
in carrying around
D
This weight
C
These words are
D
tearing us apart
(Repeat Chorus 1)

Oh save me from a gray life

Oh save me from a gray life
Em D G
I've paid the price
C Em D C
with my soul Oh save me

Chorus 2:
G
And that's enough for
the back to break
Bm C
That's an awful lot to take
Em C
But I've been paying for
G
it since I drove my girl away
Em
And that's the sign
of a solemn man
Bm
I'll make the best of
C
the best I can
Em C
And I'll be better for it
G
if I ever get my chance
If I ever get my chance
If I ever get my chance
If I ever get my chance
