Verse 1:
C
So what, the heel on your shoe broke
G
Take it off or break the other one, oh
Am
So what, you ran for the last bus
F
And he didn't want to let you on

C
Tough luck, you lost your connection
G
If he cares, it'll ring again, yeah
Am
Enough, you know what he's doing
F
And how long it's been happening

Pre-chorus:
C
Everybody wants to see you happy
G
But nobody's gonna help you cry
Am
Got somebody that can keep you laughing
F
But nobody that can dry your eyes

Chorus:
C
So build a bridge and walk over
G
Take the risk and walk over
Am
Bite your lips and walk over
F
That river that you cry

C
Lay the bricks and walk over
G
Make a wish and walk over
Am
Look how quick you got over
F
And now that river's dry

C
If you were scared of your shadow
G
Wouldn't you stop lookin down, now
Am
Instead you closed every window
F
Thinking you could keep the light out

C
Everybody's got their own opinion
G
But nobody's gonna help you choose
Am
Everybody wants to be on your team
F
But nobody wants to see you lose

C
So build a bridge and walk over

Take the risk and walk over

Bite your lips and walk over

That river that you cry

Don't trip on the way over

That river might be why, oh

A little bit faster

Little bit faster now

Don't, don't, don't, stop
                     C
Let him keep talkin'

You keep crossing now, oh

You're almost at the other end

So close to the river bend

That river that you cry
