Edge of the World
=================

Written by The Levellers, from the "Hello Pig" LP.

Transcription by Jonathan (jonathan (massey_jon@hotmail.com).

Surprised that this is not tabbed elsewhere, as it's quite a simple chord sequence.
Stick a capo on fret 2, and away you go!


A                        Em
At the edge of the world nothing is said
G                                D
Call a witness, conversation is dead

(repeat same chords throughout...)


We pray for the coming but we don't hear a word
We're waiting around the edge of the world


The loneliest place I know is my own street
And your very own words are the hardest to eat


From the shadows of plastic where you shout to be heard
You're just sitting around at the edge of the world


The telephone is lying there on the floor
Somehow the moss just creeps round the door


And everyone's crying from a painful blow
That came down the cable centuries ago


Three men from the east correctly concurred
And left us in shackles at the edge of the world


The edge of the world, yeah, the edge of the world
They left us in pieces at the edge of the world


The edge of the world, oh, the edge of the world
We're all waiting in pieces at the edge of the world


The edge of the world, yeah, the edge of the world
We're all waiting in pieces at the edge of the world


The edge of the world, oh, the edge of the world
We're all waiting in pieces at the edge of the world


The edge of the world, yeah, the edge of the world
We're all waiting in pieces at the edge of the world
