CAPO FIRST FRET
 
Intro:  D  G  A  (2x)
 
D             G         A           D           G  A
Oh, I've been stumblin' through the darkness,
D                  G        A        D       G  A
Tryin' to feel the ground beneath my feet.
D                G       A     D            G  A
Afraid of movin' much in any direction...
D               G            A      D      Bm  A
Stuck where the past and the future meet.
 
      G              D
But I fin'lly got my first good look...
A                 D
A little fire was all it took.
G                      D
An' as the flames grew brighter,
      A
I saw everything that I'd missed.
G                 D
Once you get your courage up,
A                          Bm
You light a match an' your eyes adjust...
G                   D
It's amazing what a man can see,
       Bm         A             D
By the light of a burnin' bridge.
 
G  A  D
 
D                       G        A       D          G  A
An' there were things I saw that I'm not proud of.
D                  G         A        D       G  A
Things that I'd do diff'rent now from then.
D                 G       A       D        G  A
But when I really make myself get honest,
D               G        A     D      Bm   A
It's over and I can't go back again.
 
G                       D
'Cause I fin'lly got my first good look...
A                 D
A little fire was all it took.
G                      D
An' as the flames grew brighter,
      A
I saw everything that I'd missed.
G                 D
Once you get your courage up,
A                          Bm
You light a match an' your eyes adjust...
G                   D
It's amazing what a man can see,
       Bm         A             D
By the light of a burnin' bridge.
 
A                                G              D
It sure is hard to let go and to leave the past behind,
          Em             D                G                  A
But there ain't no other way that you can find some peace of mind.
 
G                     D
When I fin'lly got my first good look...
A                 D
