The Bridge

[G]Who else is gonna carry you across
Who’s gonna make the deliver[C]y
And why am I always burning
You know the first bridge was a fallen [D]tree[D#][D]

So go on and do likewise ladies
Cross with some confidence
You gotta sit and wait while I’m drawn
Or you gonna wind up in the drink

If the billygoat was bootsy
And the troll was Maceo
Only the godfather of soul
Can really take you to the bridge

[D]Yeah, but you can’t throw it [C]in
Your typewriter, hand glider, shifty mobster and amplifier
[D]Yeah, but you can’t throw it [C]in
Your golf clubs and bowling balls, gas heaters and bald tires
[D]Yeah, but you can’t throw it [C]in
Microwaves and old pill bottles, video tapes with porno on them
[D]Yeah, but you can’t throw it [C]in
Old birdcages and lame weed eaters, murder weapons and blown speakers
[D]Yeah, but you can’t throw it in[D#][D]

[G]Who else is gonna carry you across
Who’s gonna make the deliver[C]y[D#][D]
