Intro 
G        C        G       D 
G        C        G       D 

 
Verse 1:
G                            C                   G           D 
Every day I walk out in this torn up world and I fight to survive, 
    G                              C            G    D 
I'm laughing when I make it to the Saturday and I'm alive; 
              G             C        G       D 
carrying your smile with me, 
              G             C        G       D 
carrying your smile with me. 

Verse 2:
G                            C                        G                D 
Everywhere I look I see this world slippin' down that low road, day by day, 
G                            C                 G             D 
I just go on working for the things I need and making my own way; 
              G              C        G       D 
carrying your smile with me,   oh yea, 
              G              C        G       D 
carrying your smile with me. 

 
Pre-Chorus
C                                     D        G 
  Take a walk on the troubled side of this old town, 
C                                           G 
  take a walk on the broken streets and the buildings falling down. 
C                                         D                G 
  Look at all these kids with nothing but trouble in their eyes, 
Am                 G                        D* 
  trouble in their future, trouble in their lives. 


G*                 G* 
  Some bridges are falling down, 
G*                 Em*    D* 
  some bridges are still around. 


Interlude

Bridge:
C                             D       G 
  Take a walk on the shaded uptown avenue, 
C                               G 
  some people are doing well no   matter how they do. 
C                                      D          G 
  And I know there's more to life than   what you own 
      Am*              G*      D* 
but I see so many good things, things I've never known. 


G*                 G* 
  Some bridges are falling down, 
G*                 Em*    D* 
  some bridges are still around. 


 
Verse 3:
G*                                C*               G*          D* 
Every night I listen to the sound   of the street, lying in my bed, 
  G*                              C*                   G*               D* 
I love to see the dreams that are dancing there in the light above your head. 
    G*                 C*             G*                  D* 
And sometimes I get so weary and when hope is caving in, 
    G*                              C*                      G*           D* 
you fill me with your love and your laughter, baby, until I get back up again.

Carrying your smile with me (Take a walk on the streets of this divided town) 
              G                                                     D 
Carrying your smile with me (Take a walk on the smoking edge of the battleground) 
              G                                            C
