Intro: C   F-C  (2x) 

                             F       C 
When we were in love, or whatever it was 
   F                  G 
We tore apart their believing hearts 
        F                 C 
Just to ride that passion in 


                                  F       C 
And we survived okay, through the mess we made 
      F                     G 
But I don't know how we can come back now 
    F                  C 
And try to be friends again 

  

       F               G               C               F 
'Cause when I see you, I can't let the past remain the past 
                   G                    C               F 
All that heartache we brought on, comes rushing back so fast 
               G                C                 F 
I can't see no road ahead, just pulls me down somehow 
                      Dm                            G       C    F-C    F-C 
There's so much water under that bridge, it must be sinking now 


                            F         C 
With a shiver and chill, it haunts me still 
       F                  G 
What a fool I was to have almost lost 
F                      C 
Most of what's dear to me 


                              F        C 
From the very first touch, we took too much 
       F                    G 
In the fire we found, I was burning down 
    F                 C 
And just too blind to see 

  
 
    F               G               C               F 
And when I see you, I can't let the past remain the past 
                   G                    C               F 
All that heartache we brought on, comes rushing back so fast 
               G                C                 F 
I can't see no road ahead, just pulls me down somehow 
                      Dm                            G       C    F-C    F-C 
There's so much water under that bridge, it must be sinking now 


Bridge: 
          F                G 
If we had just held on and maybe once 
Em              F 
Seen beyond our fire 
                       G 
But our try-agains and might-have-beens 
     C               Dm      F 
Were swept away when we were 
         G 
Oh, when we were 


OUTRO:  
   C        G    C     
Ohooooh 
F              G                C                 F 
I can't see no road ahead, just pulls me down somehow 
                      Dm                            G       C 
There's so much water under that bridge, it must be sinking now 
              Dm                            G       C 
So much water under that bridge, it must be sinking now
