Alright, go for it.
[Abm] [Ebm]
[Abm] [Bb] [Ebm]
[Bb] [B] [Ebm]
[Bb] [Ebm]
[Bb] [Abm] [Ebm]
[Bb]
[Abm] And it's easy to [Bb] create.
[Abm] And my mama always said,
if [Ebm] you're not living on the edge,
[Bb] then you're taking [Ebm] up too much space.
[Bb] [Ebm] Been looking to settle down,
[Abm] find [Bb] some place nice,
[B] where I can get my [Ebm] hand on some marginal [Bb] land,
and turn it into [Ebm] paradise.
The smaller the better,
and I don't care [Bb] if it's bad,
[Ebm] because I'm the kind of fella,
who'll always be a fringe [Bb] dweller,
just do the best I can with [Ebm] what I have.
Because the edge is where it's at,
and it's the most productive [Bb] place.
[Ebm] And my mama always said,
if you're not living on the [Gm] edge,
then you're taking up too [Ebm] much space.
I might move to the desert,
[Abm] whipping wind [Bb] and sun.
[Abm] Well I'll just plant a hedge,
[Ebm] and I've got my edge,
and [F] I'll have sorted [Ebm] two things with one.
Oh but if the rain is a-fallin',
[Abm] and washing everything [Bb] away,
[Abm] I'll just slow down that water,
[Ebm] with a convoluted border,
[Bb] and everything gonna be [Ebm] okay.
Because the edge is where it's at,
I'm gonna work that [Bb] interface.
[Ebm] Because my mama always said,
if you're not living on the edge,
[Bb] then you're taking [Ebm] up too much space.
[Bm]
[Ebm] [B] [Ebm] Make a pledge, to acknowledge the edge.
Grow some veg, and stack it up on a ledge.
Wherever things come together,
you'll find it getting better.
You'll be so in love with the edge,
you'll want to write a love letter.
So broaden your range, at the place of exchange.
You'll have nothing to lose, and everything to gain.
There's every [Gb] single color,
sitting between white [B] and blacks.
Oh well, being [Bb] poor doesn't always mean the right [Ebm] track.
[Bb] Ooh.
[B] [Ebm] Because the edge is where it's at,
and we're on the [Bb] edge right now.
[B] Yeah, we're gonna see some [Ebm] change,
see some things get [Bb] rearranged,
moving on, cause there's [Ebm] no going back.
I said the edge is where it's at,
[Abm] and there's no more [Bb] time to waste.
[B] Cause my mama always [Ebm] said,
if you're not living on the [Bb] edge,
then you're taking up [Ebm] too much space.
Yeah, my mama always said,
if you're not living on the edge,
[Bb] well you're taking up too much space.
