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


chorus


F                    A#                 C
That's when love can build a bridge of light,
            F                   A#
That's what turns the wrongs all right,
                Gm                 C
That's when you know it's worth 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

F, C, A#, Gm

F                     C
 deep breath, take it on the chin
    A#                  F
but don't forget to let love back in


chorus (key change)

G                   C                 D
That's when love can build a bridge of light
            Em                   C
That's what turns the wrongs all right
                A                D
That's when you can't give up the fight

    G                     C              D
and that's when love turns nighttime into day,
            Em              C
That's when loneliness goes away
               A                 D
That's why you gotta be strong tonight
       C             D                    Em
'cause only love can build us a bridge of light

C             D                    G
only love can build us a bridge of light.
