Tap any chord in the song to see its shape. The boxes are drawn right-handed; Lefty flips them, which is how I actually play. Use − and + to move the whole song into a key that suits your voice, or tap Capo 4 to see the real chords with no capo.
Transposed. The chord names and boxes have moved; any tab on this page is still written for the original key.
Sitting on the edge of the world
Ever drunk, ever dry
And I'll watch the rest of the world
Fly right bye - bye
So go on, go on baby
Live your life, adventurous, and uh - and...
Go on, go on baby
I'll just sit right here
When the rain has washed away the stains
And I go out to sea
My senses drown down with my pain
And tomorrow starts without me
When the sun rises and finds your eyes
Don't leave them in tears
Everything is not meant to be said
To find its way into other's ears
So go on, go on baby
Live your life, adventurous, and uh - and...
Go on, go on baby
I'll just sit right here - at the edge of the world
I'll wait for you
I'll just sit right here, at the edge of the world
I'll wait for you
I'll just sit right here, at the edge of the world
So when the sun rises and finds your eyes
Simply going nowhere fast
And I can't promise you tomorrow
But today will always last
Chorus ThreeSame as Chorus Two. Tap to open.
So go on, go on baby
Live your life, adventurous, and uh - and...
Go on, go on baby
I'll just sit right here - at the edge of the world
I'll wait for you
I'll just sit right here, at the edge of the world
And I'll wait for you
I'll just sit right here, at the edge of the world
