_ _ _ Some people tell me _
[Am] _ _ that [B] I'm crazy, _ _
[Em] cause I do things that don't fit in with the rest of [Em] society. _ _
_ Like my love of small spaces, _
[Am] _ my room [B] ain't too large.
[Am] I just live in a [Em] box underneath the [B] house off the corner of [Em] my garage.
But the edge is where it's at, _ and it's easy to [B] create. _
And [C] my mama always [Em] said, if you're not living on the edge, [D] then you're taking up too [Em] much space. _
_ _ Been looking to settle down, _
[Am] _ _ find [B] some place nice, [Am] where I can get my [Em] hand on some marginal
[B] land and turn it into [E] paradise.
[Em] _ _
_ _ The smaller the better, _ _
[Am] _ and I don't care [B] if it's bad.
[Am] I guess I'm the kind of fella [Em] who'll always be a fringe dweller, [B] do the best I can with
[Em] what I have.
Because the edge is where it's at, _ and [C] it's the most [B] productive place.
And [E] my mama always [Em] said, if you're not living on the [B] edge, then you're taking up too [Em] much space. _

[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ I [F#] might wind up in the desert, _
_ [Bm] _ whipping wind and [B] sun. _
[Am] Well I'll just plant a hedge, [E] and I'll start my edge, [B] and I'll have sorted two [E] things with one.
[Em] _ _
[F#] Well, what if the [C] rain is a [Em]-falling, _ and washing [B] everything away? _
[Am] I'll just slow down that water [Em] with a convoluted border, [B] and everything gonna be [Em] okay. _
Because the edge is where it's at, _ I'm gonna work that [B] into space.
[Em] Because my mama always said, if you're not living on the edge, then you're taking up
too [Em] much space. _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ [F#m] Yes you did.
[E] _ _ [B] _ _ [G] _ _ [A] _ _
_ [G] Make a pledge, to [B] acknowledge the [E] edge.
Grow some veg, and stack it on a ledge.
[Em] _ [D#] Wherever things come [G] together, you'll find [Em] it getting better.
You'll fall [G] so in love with the edge, you wanna write it a love letter.
Just [Em] broaden your range, as a place of exchange.
You've got nothing to lose, and everything to gain.
Oh, there's every [D#] single color, [G] seen from between [C#] white and black.
[C] A well-meaning spot, there [B] ain't always a right [Em] track.
_ _ _ [B] _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ [Am] _ _ [B] _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ [B] _ _ [Em] _
Because the edge is where it's at, _ [Am] and we're [A] on the edge [B] right now.
[Em] Yeah, we're gonna see some change, [Em] see some things get rearranged.
[B] Moving on, cause there's no [Em] going back. _
I said the edge is [G] where it's at, _ [Am] and there's no more [B] time to waste.
[E] Cause my mama always said, [Em] if you're not living on the edge, [B] then you're taking up
too [Em] much space. _
[Am] Yeah, my mama always said, [Em] if you're not living on the [B] edge, then you're taking [Em] up
too much space. _
