Take The Edge Off Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I get home [Em]and it's already d[C]ark
Kick [D]my shoes off, [Em]leave them in [C]the hall
It's been [D]freezing in this [Em]house
Since [C]the day that you flew south
Now I'm [D]shivering,
just [Em]tryna switch you [C]out

[Verse 2]
[Am]As cliche as it seem[D]s
I'm [Em]strung out [D]on a [C]dream
It's [Am]taking all my strength
[Em]To keep me clean[D]

[Verse 3]
Take [G]the edge off
Take [D]the edge off
I just [Em]need a little taste
To get [C]me through the night
Take [G]the edge off
Take [D]the edge off
Lord knows [Em]what I'd give away
To feel [C]you one more time

[Verse 4]
I know [D]by now for [Em]cer tain
you moved [C]on
Maybe [D]you were someone
[Em]else's all [C]along
Slip[D]ping off your [Em]dress
Lean your [C]head against his chest
While [D]I'm left here in the
[Em]arms of my regret

[Verse 5]
[C]The cei[Am]ling, it spins and [D]shakes
And still [Em]I cannot[D] escap[C]e
There's [Am]only one thing
[Em]that can dull this [D]pain

[Verse 6]
And take [G]the edge off
Take the [D]edge off
I just [Em]need a little taste
To get [C]me through the night
Take the [G]edge off
Take [D]the edge off
Lord knows [Em]what I'd give away
To feel [C]you one more time

[Verse 7]
[Em]I'm passing [D]days watching [G]cars
The sun [Am]goes down,
the head[G]lights flicker [D]on[Em]
Then in the [D]dark counting [G]stars
[Am]and [G]wishing [D]upon

[Verse 8]
Take the [G]edge off
Take [D]the edge off
I just [Em]need a little taste
To get [C]me through the night
Take the [G]edge off
Take the [D]edge off
Lord knows [Em]what I'd give away
[C]To feel you one more time
