C G7 C
Nineteen scarlet roses
G7 C
The chaplain spread a-round
G7 C
In the waters of Burrard Inlet
G7 C
In old Van-couver Town
C
Where the bridge came tumblin' down
F
When the bridge came tumblin' down
C
Nineteen men were drowned
G7
In June or nineteen fifty-eight
F C
In old Vancouver Town
G7 C
There were seventy-nine men working
G7 C
To build this brand new bridge
G7 C
To span the Second Narrows
G7 C
And connect up with the ridge
C
Till a big wind hit the bridge
F
And the bridge came tumblin' down
C
And nineteen men were drowned
G7
And the medical corps couldn't be too sure
F C
Of the rest of the men they found
G7 C
In among the twisted girders
G7 C
One man real-ized
G7 C
How last night he'd been dreaming
G7 C
And saw be-fore his eyes
C
The big wind on the rise
F
And the bridge came tumblin' down
C
And nineteen steel men drowned
G7
And he saw the fright of the darkest night
F C
In old Vancouver Town
G7 C
With frogmen in the water
G7 C
By the cutting torches' glow
G7 C
They fought to save the steel men
G7 C
From certain death be-low
C
And pain we'll never know
F
When the bridge came tumblin' down
C
And nineteen men were drowned
G7
And sixty more that came ashore
F C
So thankful they were found
G7 C
It often makes you wonder
G7 C
In strength, who has the edge
G7 C
The longest steel-beam structure
G7 C
That spans the highest ridge
C
Or the men that built the bridge
F
For the bridge came tumblin' down
C
And nineteen men were drowned
G7
But the other men came back again
F C
To lay the new beams down
G7 C
Now if you're ever crossing
G7 C
This mighty bridge sub-lime
G7 C
And nineteen scarlet roses
G7 C
Pass be-fore your mind
C
Remember and be kind
F
The bridge came tumblin' down
C
And nineteen men were drowned
G7
So you could ride to the other side
F C
Of old Vancouver Town
G7
So you could ride to the other side of
F C
Old Vancouver Town
