Darkness On The Edge Of Town
Ton : CEnglish
Couplet
Well, they're Gstill racing out at the Ctrestles
But that blood Git never burned in their Cveins
Now I hear Gshe's got a house up in CFairview
And a style Gshe's trying to Cmaintain.
Refrain
GWell, if Cshe wants to Gsee Emme
You can Gtell her that CI'm easily Gfound. Em
GTell her Cthere's a spot out G'neath EmAbram's Bridge
Tell her Dthere's a darkness on the Dm7edge of Ctown
DThere's a darkness on the Cedge Gof Ctown.
Couplet
Well, everybody's got a secret, Sonny
Something they just can't face.
Some folks spend their whole life trying to keep it
They carry it with them every step that they take
Till some day they just cut it loose
Where no one asks any questions
Or looks too long in your face
In the darkness on the edge of town.
Couplet
Some folks are born into a good life
And other folks get it anyway anyhow
Well, now I lost my money and I lost my wife
Them things don't seem to matter much to me now.
Tonight I'll be on that hill 'cause I can't stop
I'll be on that hill with everything I've got
Lives on the line where dreams are found and lost
I'll be there on time ready to pay the cost
For wanting things that can only be found
In the darkness on the edge of town
In the darkness on the edge of town?
