[Intro]
Cma7/G Cmaj7/G D/A Em/B
[Verse 1]
If it were just the bCmaj7/Gest of us
Against the rD/Aest of us Em/B
It wCmaj/Gouldn't even be an argument aD/At all Em/B
It would be a Cmaj7/Gvictory or
A Spanish D/ACivil War Em/B
But I'm Cmaj7/Greally not so sure that is the way it is at D/Aall Em/B
[Chorus 1]
Em/BIf we are to D/Afind a way to Cmaj7/Glive
Em/BThen we need toD/A build ourselves a Cmaj7/Gbridge
AndEm/B if we were to D/Abuild ourselves thaCmaj7/Gt bridge
Am7We could meet in the D/Amiddle and forCmaj7/Ggive
[Verse 2]
If all we are is dustCmaj7/G to dust
Then in the eD/And what's Em/Bleft of us
Are the Cmaj/Gtraces of the way we treat the ones weD/A meet Em/B
And the ones wCmaj7/Gho trouble us
The greateD/Ast test of Em/Bus
Cmaj7/GSeems to me to be the way we disD/Aagree Em/B
[Chorus 2]
Em/BIf we are to D/Afind a way to Cmaj7/Glive
Em/BThen we need toD/A build ourselves a Cmaj7/Gbridge
AndEm/B if we were to D/Abuild ourselves thaCmaj7/Gt bridge
Am7We could meet in the D/Amiddle and forCmaj7/Ggive
Am7Let's meet on the bD/Aridge and forgCmaj7/Give
(Let's meet on the bridge and forgAm7ive)
Let's meet on tD/Ahe bridge and Cmaj7/Gforgive
(Let's meet on the bridge and forgive)
[Bridge]
BmIf there'Cmaj7/Gs hope to beD/A found
We will find it in our common ground
BmAnd if thaCmaj7/Gt ground is to beD/A reached
There are walls around us to be breached
BmAnd if thaCmaj7/Gt breach can be mD/Aade
Drag the others through don't be afraid
BmOr let our dCmaj7/Gifferences drag uD/As down
I believe we'll find our common ground
[Outro]
GI want us to Dfind a way to Clive
GRoll up your Dsleeves let'Cs build a bridge
GI want us to Dfind a way to Clive
Am7Let's meet on the bDridge and foCrgive

(Let's meet on the bridge and forgive)
Am7Let's meet on the bDridge and foCrgive (common ground)
Am7Let's meet on the bDridge and foCrgive (common ground)
