A
You went off the river
D
Smoke stacks fade to blind
A
This town's my own, ridin'free and alone
D
And I'm looking back
AD
Maybe I know some people
AD
Maybe I break some rules
AD
But this is the street, I've got to compete
FG
Baby, I ain't no fool
CA
*So I take a little bad with the good
FG
It ain't just black and white
(It still ain't black and white)
CA
You've got to deal with the real
FGCA
Woo, living on the edge of the night
Am
Every wild desire
Dm
Beckons from the dark
Am
I've made my bed but I can't risk my head
Dm
While I still swim with sharks
AmDm
Everyone needs something
AmDm
Sometimes they don't know why
AmDm
But so much good's been misunderstood
FG
In the blink of the eye
(Repeat *)
AmDm
You say that you don't like it
AmDm
Or maybe it's just my life
AmDm
So you live yours and I'll keep mine
FGCAmFG
Rolling like a wheel through the city on the edge of the night
C
And when the black rain's down
Am
In this cold grey town
F
I'll be waiting
GCAm
Waiting at the edge of the night
FGCAm
Woo, living on the edge of the night
FGAmDmAmDmAm
Woo, living on the edge of the night
