Intro: C G

  C                                 Bb   -          F
Friends all tried to warn me but I held my head up high
 G                                  F      -         C
All them times they told me, but I only passed them by
 C                                Dm
They all tried to tell me but I guess I didn't care
   G                                      C   - G
I turned my back and left them standing there

 C                                 Dm
All the burning bridges that have fallen after me
 G                               C
All the lonely feelings and the burning memories
F                            C
Everyone I left behind each time I closed a door
 G                             C   - G#
Burning bridges lost forever more

 C#                           B   -      F#
Joey tried to help me find a job awhile ago
 G#                       F#     -      C#
When I finally got it, I didn't want to go
 C#                            D#m
The party Mary gave for me when I just walked away
 G#                                 C#   - G#
Now there's nothing left for me to say,

 C#                                D#m
All the burning bridges that have fallen after me.
 G#                              C#
All the lonely feelings and the burning memories

Everyone I left behind each time I closed a door
 G#                           C#   - A
Burning bridges lost forever more

  D                                     C   -           G
Years have passed and I keep thinking what a fool I've been
 A                                   G         -       D
When I look back into the past and think of way back when
D                                Em
I know that I lost everything I thought that I could win
   A                                    D   - A
I guess I should have listened to my friends.

 D                                 Em
All the burning bridges that have fallen after me.
 A                               D
All the lonely feelings and the burning memories
G                            D
Everyone I left behind each time I closed a door
 A                             D  
Burning bridges lost forever more
 A                             D  
Burning bridges lost forever more
