Intro: D(2 beats),G(1 beat),A(1 beat) (x2)

Verse 1:
         D                       A
I talked to an old man, he had a Bible in a sack
               G                   A
He looked like mother nature had a heart-attack
        D                      A
Said “I used to have money and visions too
    G                 A                        D-G-A(intro)
But love and life has changed my point of view”

Chorus:
         G                           A
He says “Things have changed for the better
G                          A
Things have changed in the weather
            G              A             Bm           A-D
Well you’ve got to go down easy when you go-whoa-whoa
   G                A                       D-G-A (intro)
So don’t go burnin’ bridges on a rocky road

Verse 2 (same chords):
Well Johnny left Sally, but she didn’t cry 
She said “Johnny taught the Devil to lie”
Now she stands alone and does her own thing
She don’t miss him and she sure don’t miss the pain

Chorus (She…)

Bridge:
F#m              Bm     G     A     D
Don’t go burnin’ bridges on a rocky road
F#m              Bm      G                      A
It seems that all hinges, Lord how we carry our load

Verse 3 (same v.1 chords)
Now Bonnie she played in a rock-n-roll band
But her hour glass was out of sand
She sang one last song, yea, and this one took
Now we all stand in line and we pay to take a look

Chorus (She…)
