Standing on the Edge Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]In the middle of the night
I had a vis[G]ion
It was bigger than life
[Em]Stand[C]ing [Em]on
the edge of my bed
She [G]said "come here,
don't be afraid"
Her tongue opened like a shot
[A]Oh [Em]bang bang
Ten feet [E]tall, [Em]laser eyes
Killer body, killer thighs
She drew me a fine line
What's wrong what's [E]right[Em][E]
[Em]I di[A]dn't know what to think
She seemed to know what to drink
I was [E]stunned [Em]by her gun
[E]Cou[Em]ldn't walk,
couldn't [E]run[Em]
Well she [F]drew me a picture
And it [G]seemed so true
[C]Standing on the edge
And watching my life flash by
[Bb]Standing on the edge
She's lookin' right through my eye[C]s

[Verse 2]
[C]Love is passin' by
Right before my eyes
And I'm wondering why
What's the reason
That I'm [Bb]standing on the edge
Standing on the edge
Standing on the [C]edge[Em]
Right here in my [C]face[Em]
I had a [G]vision
That was bigger than life
Oh [E]connie likes nighttime, every [Em]night
Connie [E]likes candy, every [Em]bite
All day [E]sucker, connie might
[Em]Swallow that thing
'cause she does it right

[Verse 3]
I'm [A]weak in the knees
I'm beggin' you please
Just ask for more
She [E]just wants af[Em]fec
[E]tion[Em]
My soldier's at attention
[E]No [Em]I don't[F] know
Why [G]you're doin this to me
[C]Standing on the edge
And watching my life flash by
[Bb]Standing on the edge
She's lookin' right through my eye[C]s

[Verse 4]
[C]Love is passin' by
Right before my eyes
And I'm wondering why
What's the reason
[F]That I'm [Bb]standing on the edge
Standing on the edge
Standing on the edge
Well [Em]she t[A]old [C]me
In [G]the biblical sense
[D]And she[A] told me[C]
In [D]the strictest confid[G]ence

[Verse 5]
She [A]told [C]me
We were [G]worlds [D]apart
[A]She told [C]me, she [Em]told [G]me
[C]I don't know why I'm here
She said, "don't be [Bb]afraid"[C]
Standing on the edge
And watching my life flash by
[Bb]Standing on the edge
You're lookin' right through
my [C]eye[Am] s[G]
[C]Standing on the edge
Light flashes before my eyes
[Bb]Standing [C]on the [Bb]edge
And watchin' [C]my world
[Bb]crash by[C][Am][G][F][G]
[C]Love is passing by
Right before my eyes
And I wonder why
What's the reason
That I'm [Bb]standing on the edge

[Verse 6]
[Bb]Standing on the edge
Standing on the edge
Standing on the [C]edge
[Am]Standing on the edge
Standing on the [F]edge[G][F][G]
I'm [C]stand[Bb][C][Am][G]
[C]ing on the edge
