Some Bridges
Jackson Browne
Intro Verse 1: Every day I walk out in this torn up world and I fight to survive I’m laughing when I make it to the Saturday and I’m alive; carrying your smile with me carrying your smile with me. Verse 2: Everywhere I look I see this world slippin’ down that low road day by day I just go on working for the things I need and making my own way; carrying your smile with me oh yea carrying your smile with me. Pre-Chorus Take a walk on the troubled side of this old town take a walk on the broken streets and the buildings falling down. Look at all these kids with nothing but trouble in their eyes * trouble in their future trouble in their lives. * * Some bridges are falling down * * * some bridges are still around. Interlude Bridge: Take a walk on the shaded uptown avenue some people are doing well no matter how they do. And I know there’s more to life than what you own * * * but I see so many good things things I’ve never known. * * Some bridges are falling down * * * some bridges are still around. Verse 3: * * * * Every night I listen to the sound of the street lying in my bed * * * * I love to see the dreams that are dancing there in the light above your head. * * * * And sometimes I get so weary and when hope is caving in * * * * you fill me with your love and your laughter baby until I get back up again. Outro Carrying your smile with me (Take a walk on the streets of this divided town) Carrying your smile with me (Take a walk on the smoking edge of the battleground) Carrying your smile with me (Take a look at the situation the poverty and the desperation) (Take the time for the realization) Everyday I’m carrying your Outro 2 smile with me. Outro 2 Some bridges are falling down carrying your smile with me. Some bridges are falling down carrying your smile with me. Outro 3 (Repeat and Fade Out) >
