Verse 1
(C major) native scarlet roses
(G major) The (C major) chaplains (G major) spread around
(C major) In (G major) the (C major) waters (G major) burrard (C major) inlet
of
Old
Van (G major) couver
Town, (C major) (G major) where the (C major) bridge came
tumbling down.
(G major) And the (F major) bridge came tumbling down, (C major)
and nineteen men were drowned.
(G major) In
June of 1950, in
(F major) Old
Vancouver
(C major) Town. (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major)
(G major) There were (C major) seventy -n (G major) ine men (C major) working
to build this (G major) brand new (C major) bridge,
(G major) to (C major) span (G major) the second (C major) narrows and
connect up with the ridge,
until a big wind (G major) hit the (C major) bridge.
(G major) And the (F major) bridge came tumbling down,
(C major) and nineteen (G major) men were (C major) drowned
(G major) And the medical corps couldn't be too sure,
the (F major) rest were bound an (C major) d bound (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major)

(C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (F major) (G major) (C major)
(G major) (C major) (G major) (C major)
(G major) And (C major) among the (G major) twisted girder (C major) (G major) s,
(C major) one man (G major) real (C major) ized
(G major) How (C major) last night (G major) he'd been (C major) dreamin'
(G major) and (C major) saw be (G major) fore his (C major) eyes
The big wind on the rise,
for (F major) the bridge came tumblin' down
(C major) And nineteen steelmen drowned,
(G major) and he saw the fright
Of the darkest night,
and (F major) he went back over (C major) to town (G major) (C major) (G major)
(C major) With (G major) (C major) frogmen (G major) in the wa (C major) ter,
by cutting the torch's glow,
They fought to save the steel men,
from certain death below.
(G major) And (C major) pain you'll never know,
(G major) for the (F major) bridge came tumbling down,
And (C major) nineteen (G major) men were (C major) drowned,
(G major) and sixty more that came ashore,
So (F major) thankful they were (C major) found. (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major)
(G major)
(C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (F major)
(C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (F major) (G major) (C major)
(G major)
(C major) It (G major) (C major) of ten (G major) makes me (C major) wonder
In strength, who (G major) has the (C major) edge?
(G major) The (C major) longest (G major) steel -beam (C major) structure
(G major) That (C major) spans the highest ridge?
Or the men that built the bridge
(G major) For the (F major) bridge came tumbling down
And (C major) nineteen (G major) men were (C major) drowned
And (G major) the other men came back again
To (F major) lay their dreams (C major) down (G major)
(C major) So (G major) (C major) if you're (G major) ever (C major) crossing
This mighty (G major) bridge sub (C major) lime
(G major) And (C major) nineteen (G major) scarlet (C major) roses
Pass (G major) before your (C major) mind
(G major) Re mem (C major) ber and be kind
(G major) For the (F major) bridge came tumbling down
And (C major) nineteen (G major) men were (C major) drowned
(G major) So you can ride to the other side
and (F major) hold on to my (C major) heart
(G major) So you can ride to the other side
and (F major) hold on to (C major) my heart
the bridge came tumblin down
