Edge Of The World Chords

   
Runrig: Edge of the World
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.

        G                           D                      G
All the homes on the globe are like television in your eyes
        C             Em        C              Em    Am   D
A cross guarding your heart the living years a sacrifice
  Em                        C             G                 D
A shiver at the door in the night, clouds cross a black moonlight
C                                         D
Rushing on down to the sound of a turning world

          G                     D                          G
There's a south by sou'westerly force eight coming in strong
           C           Em             C         Em       Am   D
Across the continental shelf from the cold grey Malin beyond
    Em               C
The need to keep control
     G              D                      Em
The need to stand alone at the edge of the world

D                  Em
At the edge of the 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-)

    G                        D                                 G
The adrenalin infrastructure bringing on it's troubles some more
        C           Em     C                Em       Am   D
All the laws of the jungle stranded on your latest shore
        Em                    C
But the waves hold the healer force 
           G               D
The years disappear like a ghost
C                                                        D
Somewhere out of the sight of the night and the light of day

    G             D                             G
Now civilisation groans and the news reel cries
        C       Em      C       Em           Am    D
Like a drowning man his life in front of his eyes 
       Em              C
Oh the need to keep control
    G                D                        Em
The need to bare the soul at the edge of the world
D                   Em
On the edge of the world
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)


        Am           Em         C        G                   D
And the man from St. Kilda went over the cliff on a winter's day

D                   Em
At the edge of the world
D                   Em
At the edge of the world
