Edge Of Desire
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:2nd fret
[Intro]
G Cadd9 Am D G
[Verse 1]
G
Young and full of running
Cadd9
Tell me where has that taken me?
Am D G
Just a great figure eight or a tiny infinity?
G
Love is really nothing
Cadd9
But a dream that keeps waking me
Am D G
For all of my trying, we still end up dying, how can it be?
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
Don't say a word, just come over and lie here with me
Cadd9 G
'Cause I'm just about to set fire to everything I see
Cadd9 G
I want you so bad, I'll go back on the things I believe
Cadd9 G
There I just said it, I'm scared you'll forget about me
[Verse 2]
G
So young and full of running
Cadd9
All the way to the edge of desire
Am D G
Steady my breathing, silently screaming, I have to have you now
G
Wired and I'm tired
Cadd9
Think I'll sleep in my clothes on the floor
Am D G
Or maybe this mattress will spin on its axis and find me on yours
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
Don't say a word, just come over and lie here with me
Cadd9 G
'Cause I'm just about to set fire to everything I see
Cadd9 G
I want you so bad, I'll go back on the things I believe
Cadd9 G
There I just said it, I'm scared you'll forget about me
