from the album "The Edge of the World"

11/4/05

INTRO: E

E B

One day your face will fade

A C#m

And your heart will see new things

E B

Someday there'll be no parade

A C#m

And you'll see what life can bring

E B

You made me wait for you

A C#m

While your brilliant mind was seething

E B

I guess you didn't know that you were

A C#m

The only thing that kept me breathing

E B

I said the things I said

A C#m

Not because I meant to harm you

E B

Now you know that I'm nearly dead

A C#m

I'll just bet that it kinda warms you

CHORUS:

B A

You left me out on the edge of the world

B A

You played your cards and your power as the girl

B A

You watched with pride as your flag unfurled

C#m B E

And you watched me fall from the edge of the world

E B

Revenge is so sweet they say

A C#m

But they don't tell you that it eats you

E B

Your crowd is gathered 'round today

A C#m

But someday they're the ones who'll beat you

E B

I know that I'm wrong about

A C#m

What came out of me last time we talked

E B

But do you have to shout it out

A C#m

That you think that I would really walk

CHORUS

E B

You said I could never be too intense

A C#m

It only proved that I really loved you

E B

You said that it all made sense

A C#m

That I would put no one above you

E B

And now we're just one slip on my part

A B

You've used that to damn me

E B

If you felt the desperation in my heart

A C#m

Then maybe you wouldn't slam me

CHORUS

E B

I pray you never lose your face

A C#m

I hope it stays brand new

E B

'Cause in this world it's the place

A C#m

Where everybody seems to love you

E B

Where I live it doesn't mean a thing

A C#m

I'll be there in forever

E B

If you ever hear my heart sing

A C#m

You'll know we're together
