Chorus:
E                   B
Sayonara adios auf wiedersehen, farewell
  A
Adieu, goodnight, guten abend
            B
here’s one last song you can sell
       E
let’s call it burning bridges
        B
it’s a singalong as well
        A
ciao, adieu, goodnight, guten abend
         B                   E
play it for your friends in hell

          A
Someone shut the lights off, turn the page,
      E
the stories I could write
      A
I’ve seen a million faces and
      B
I’ve lived a couple of lives
            A
here’s our history for all to see,
      E
the smiles and all the scars
           A
first the rising then the falling call
       B
this chapter shooting stars
            B
must sound good from where you are

Chorus

Ah, check the box, yeah, mark this day
There's nothing more to say
After 30 years of loyalty,
they let you dig a grave
Now, maybe you could learn to sing
Or even strum along
But I'll give you half the publishing
You're why I wrote this song
(Everybody, sing along!)

Chorus:
Sayonara, adiós, auf wiedersehen, farewell
Adieu, goodnight, guten abend
Here's one last song you can sell
Let's call it "Burning Bridges"
It's a sing-along as well
Hope my money and my masters
Buy a front row seat in hell

Ciao, adieu, goodnight, guten abend
Play it for your friends in St.Tropez
