[Verse 1]

Em C

If I were somebody else

I'd be calling me stupid

But I still do this

Em C

No way that you're gonna change

Nothing to say that I wanna hear

I gotta get out of here

[Pre-chorus]

Em C

I've been driving down this road with my eyes closed

Trying to get lost

But I know I'll be back again

And it's easy to escape

C G

But as long as there's a way I can reach you

I know it's never gonna be over

[Chorus]

I'm throwing matches

I'm lighting dynamite

It never catches

This bridge won't burn

I drop the lighter

Into the gasoline

No fire

C G D

This bridge won't burn, burn, bu-urn

Em C

This bridge won't burn, burn, bu-u-u-urn

[Verse 2]

Em C

Can't even say it's your fault

Because I know it's me

That let you let me down

Em C

Another last chance

But I'm not fooling anyone

You know better than anyone

[Pre-chorus]

Em C

I've been driving down this road with my eyes closed

Trying to get lost

But I know I'll be back again

And it's easy to escape

C G

But as long as there's a way I can reach you

I know it's never gonna be over

[Chorus]

I'm throwing matches

I'm lighting dynamite

It never catches

This bridge won't burn

I drop the lighter

Into the gasoline

No fire

C G D

This bridge won't burn, burn, burn

Em C

This bridge won't burn, burn, burn

[Bridge]

Maybe there's a reason that I'd

Rather be lonely with you

Em D

Than lonely alone

Tell me the reason why I'd

Rather be lonely with you

Em D

Than lonely alone

[Chorus]

I'm throwing matches

I'm lighting dynamite

It never catches

C G D

This bridge won't burn, burn, bu-urn

This bridge won't burn, burn, bu-u-u-urn

I'm throwing matches

I'm lighting dynamite

It never catches

This bridge won't burn

I drop the lighter

Into the gasoline

No fire

This bridge won't burn, burn, bu-urn

Em C

This bridge won't burn, burn, bu-u-u-urn

*End on G let it ring!
