Edge of the World Runrig
Standard Tuning
I quite like this one, it's got a nice upbeat feel to it, the chords seem quite straightforward.
For the intro i just play G chord.
All the [G]homes on the globe are like [D]television in your eyes[G]
A cross [C]guarding your [Em]heart the [C]living years a [Em]sacrif[Am]ice[D]
A [Em]shiver at the door in the [C]night, clouds [G]cross a black moon[D]light
[C]Rushing on down to the sound of a turning [D]world
There's a [G]south by sou'westerly [D]force eight coming in stron[G]g
Across the [C]continental [Em]shelf from the [C]cold grey [Em]Malin bey[Am]ond[D]
The [Em]need to keep cont[C]rol
The n[G]eed to stand al[D]one at the edge of the [Em]world
[D]At the edge of the [Em]world
[D] [G] [C] [D] [G] [C] [Am] [D]
At the edge of the (ha-a-a-a ra-a-a-a) (ha-a-a-a ra-a-a-a-a-)
The [G]adrenalin infrastructure [D]bringing on it's troubles some mor[G]e
All the [C]laws of the [Em]jungle [C]stranded on your [Em]latest sh[Am]ore[D]
But the [Em]waves hold the healer [C]force
The years d[G]isappear like a [D]ghost
[C]Somewhere out of the sight of the night and the light of [D]day
Now [G]civilisation g[D]roans and the news reel cries[G]
Like a d[C]rowning [Em]man his [C]life in [Em]front of his [Am]eyes [D]
Oh the [Em]need to keep con[C]trol
The [G]need to bare the [D]soul at the edge of the w[Em]orld
[D]On the edge of the w[Em]orld
[D] [G] [C] [D] [G] [C] [Am] [D]
On the edge of the (ha-a-a-a ra-a-a-a-a) (ha-a-a-a-a ra-a-a-a-a-a)
And the [Am]man from St. [Em]Kilda went [C]over the [G]cliff on a winter's [D]day
[D]At the edge of the w[Em]orld
[D]At the edge of the w[Em]orld
(Repeat to fade)
Enjoy!
