verse 1
F C
Just when you think, hope is lost
D# A#
and giving up, is all you got,
Dm D# A#
blue turns black, your confidence is cracked,
D# A# C
there seems no turning back, from here
pre-chorus
Dm A# F C
sometimes there isn't an obvious explanation
Dm A# F C
while the holiest hearts can feel the strongest palpitations
chorus
F A# C
That's when you can build a bridge of light,
F A#
That's what turns the wrongs all right,
Gm C
That's when you can't give up the fight
F A# C
That's when love turns nighttime into day,
F A#
That's when loneliness goes away,
Gm C
That's why you gotta be strong tonight,
A# C F
only love can build us a bridge of light
verse 2
F C
When your feet, are made of stone
D# A#
and you're convinced, that you're all alone
Dm D# A#
look at the stars, instead of the dark
D# A# C
you'll find your heart shines like the sun
pre-chorus
Dm A# F C
let's not let our anger get us lost
Dm A# F C
and the need to be right comes with way too high-a costs

That's when love can build a bridge of light,
