[Intro]
G Bm D G
[Verse 1]
G Bm
You're on your side and I'm on mine
G
And in between this great divide
Bm
There's fire in the streets
A D G
People on their knees
Bm
Holding Bibles and breaking glass
D G
Guns and armor, tears and gas
Bm
If smoke is all we see
D G
How we supposed to breathe?
[Chorus]
Bm
What if we took these stones we've been throwin'?
D G
What if we laid 'em down?
Bm
What if we forget all that we know and
D G
Make some common ground?
A Bm
What if I reach for you, you reach for me, close the distance?
D G
What if that space between changed, if we started building
D
(bridges, bridges, bridges)
[Verse 2]
G Bm
I know you're scared and so am I
G
But that don't mean we shouldn't try
A Bm
It ain't just black or white
D G
It's down to wrong or right
[Chorus]
Bm
What if we took these stones we've been throwin'?

What if we laid 'em down?

Make some common ground?

What if I reach for you, you reach for me, close the distance?

Bm
We're gonna need more than prayers and wishes

To build those bridges, bridges, bridges

It's gonna take way more work to fix it
D G
Gotta build those bridges, bridges, bridges
[Chorus]
Bm
We gotta take these stones we've been throwin'
D G
We gotta lay them down
Bm
We gotta forget all that we know and
D G
Make some common ground
