They stood ^Eon the bridge together And w^Aatched the river fl^Bow And to pl^Eedge themselves forever A pl^F#mace where lovers g^Bo

To f^Aix a lock up^Eon the bridge And ^Beach would have a k^C#mey That t^Aold of th^Beir et^Eernal love^C#m The w^Aay that ^Bit must b^Ee

And w^C#mith this key, she s^Abmaid I give My s^Aoul, my love, my h^Beart And ^C#mif the lock should g^Abmo from here Then ^AI will know that w^Be must p^Eart

Oh but s^Eoon he had to leave her To be a s^Aoldier far aw^Bay And she would g^Eo down to the cathedral And ^F#mevery morning pr^Bay

To l^Aight a candle for h^Eer love To br^Bing him safely h^C#mome But ^Aon the d^Bay the l^Eetter came^C#m She kn^Aew that h^Be was g^Eone

With tr^C#membling hands, she ^Abmopened it To r^Aead the words which s^Baid &quo^C#mt;It is with deep^Abm regret we must Inf^Aorm you that he's m^Bissing, believ^Eed dead"

She stood ^Eon the bridge at midnight And w^Aatched the river fl^Bow And the l^Eock was in her fingers Into the w^F#mater she would g^Bo

But ^Ain the distance h^Eeard a voice C^Balling out her n^C#mame And ^Aas he r^Ban to h^Eer, she f^C#mell ^AIn his ^Barms ag^Eain

And w^C#mith this key I g^Abmave, he said My s^Aoul, my love, my h^Beart And wh^C#men I saw the l^Abmock was gone I kn^Aew that we could n^Bever be ^Eapart

C#m Abm A B C#m Abm A B E A E F#m E A E F#m

W^Be will never p^Eart...
