Here we go round a-gain, masquerading as long 
 
lost friends, cause a memory never dies,
                                          D
it kinda fades into a lie and what do you know?
 
 
 
CHORUS:
D                E                      A
Still waters run deep, old bridges burn slow.
A                E
Still waters run deep now, baby, old bridges
     A
burn slow.

Let's chalk it all up to our youth, that's one 
 
way to hide from the truth.
 
I never asked you for a thing and if I had you
           E        D
would have told me, so. 
 
 
 
CHORUS:
D                E                      A
Still waters run deep, old bridges burn slow.
A                E
Still waters run deep now, baby, old bridges
     A
burn slow.
 
 
 
BRIDGE:
    D
But how many years did I chase after you, all my
G
mind would allow.
                B
But now I can't break off the past and even if I 
     E
knew how.
 
(Ahhhh, I wouldn't tell it to you, baby.)

So, why don't we call it a day, I got nothing else 
 
left to say, cause a dream we both dreamt
                                          D
Was just a last ditch attempt to stop the flow.
 
 
 
CHORUS:
D                E                      A
Still waters run deep, old bridges burn slow.
A                E
Still waters run deep now, baby, old bridges
     A
burn slow.

A                     E
In a way I know and I know, don't you know they 
     A
burn slow.
                 E                      A
Still waters run deep, old bridges burn slow.
