Bridges Squares

As I walked on to Kendall Square
Asus4
And crossed the river basin there
Cadd9
The Charles was black, the sky was blue
Asus4
The view was old, the bridge was new
Em
And past the flow's constricted mouth
FM7/C
Commercial lines flowed mostly south
Dm
Or east across a boundless sea
Am
Where rising soon, the star would be
Repeat Verse Chords
The tides are moved by sun and moon
The spring will last from March to June
The red line train will pass behind
As long as bridge joins stream and sky
And from that point where i did stand
I wondered at the works of man
I wondered how this walk began
Til red line train came round again
F C G Am
But it's not the time to ossify
F C G Am
It's not the end of wondering why
F C G Am
It's not in your faith or your apostasy
F C
It's not the end of
Cadd9 Am

Repeat Verse Chords
As I can take, so I could give
If I could shop where I could live
As I can read, so I'd write books
If I could eat where I could cook
Where talkers have a place to meet
Where walkers walk along the street
And subways travel paths well hid
But ferries take you off the grid
F C G Am
But it's not the time to ossify
F C G Am
It's not the end of wondering why
F C G Am
It's not in your faith or your apostasy
F C
It's not the end of
Dm FM7/C
Predictable waves of historicity
Dm FM7/C
Nostalgia for gas-lit time I'll never see
Dm C Am
Futurians manifest, internationalists
Em Am
Connected are the promenades and waterways
Em D
The living waves of harbor nights and city days
Dm FM7/C
And where is the builder, was there something missed?
Dm G
Hidden in the plans to the bridge that started this?

Repeat Verse Chords
As I walked on to Founders' Square
And crossed the river basin there,
The Passaic was grey, the sky was blue
The bridge was old, the view was new
And from that point where I did stand
I wondered at the builder's plan
I wondered how this walk will end
Til path train came around again
F C G Am
But it's not the time to ossify
F C G Am
It's not the end of wondering why
F C G Am
It's not in your faith or your apostasy
