Bridge Over Troubled Water

-the # 10 song of the 1970-1979 rock era

-was # 1 for 6 weeks in 1970

-Words and Music by Paul Simon

-was a campaign song for George McGovern in 1972

When you're weary feeling small

When tears are in your eyes I will dry them all (all)

I'm on your side oh when times get rough

And friends just can't be found

Like a bridge over troubled water

I will lay me down

Like a bridge over troubled water

I will lay me down

When you're down and out

When you're on the street

When evening falls so hard

I will comfort you (ooh)

I'll take your part oh when darkness comes

And pain is all around

Like a bridge over troubled water

I will lay me down

Like a bridge over troubled water

I will lay me down
