Take The Edge Off

Eb             Fm           Db
I get home and it's already dark
Eb                 Fm            
Kick my shoes off, leave them in 
    Db
the hall
          Eb               Fm
It's been freezing in this house
          Db
Since the day that you flew south
        Eb              Fm        
Now I'm shivering, just tryna 
       Db
switch you out

   Bbm          Eb
As cliche as it seems
    Fm         Eb   Db
I'm strung out on a dream
     Bbm           Fm
It's taking all my strength
           Eb
To keep me clean


[Chords]

         Ab
Take the edge off
         Eb
Take the edge off
       Fm
I just need a little taste
   Db
To get me through the night
         Ab
Take the edge off
         Eb
Take the edge off
           Fm
Lord knows what I'd give away

   Db
To feel you one more time


[Verse 2]

  Eb              Fm              
I know by now for certain you 
  Db
moved on
      Eb               Fm         
Maybe you were someone else's all 
Db
along
Eb                Fm
Slipping off your dress
          Db
Lean your head against his chest
Eb                         Fm    
While I'm left here in the arms 
     Db
of my regret

    Bbm                   Eb
The ceiling, it spins and shakes
    Fm      Eb     Db
And still I cannot escape
        Bbm            Fm         
There's only one thing that can 
        Eb
dull this pain


[Chorus]

             Ab
And take the edge off
         Eb
Take the edge off
       Fm
I just need a little taste
   Db
To get me through the night
         Ab
Take the edge off
         Eb
Take the edge off
           Fm
Lord knows what I'd give away
   Db
To feel you one more time


[Bridge]

Fm          Eb            Ab
I'm passing days watching cars
    Bbm                Ab         
The sun goes down, the headlights 
        Eb
flicker on
Fm          Eb            Ab    
Then in the dark counting stars 
Bbm Ab      Eb
and wishing upon


[Chorus]
         Ab
Take the edge off
         Eb
Take the edge off
       Fm
I just need a little taste
   Db
To get me through the night
         Ab
Take the edge off
         Eb
Take the edge off
           Fm
Lord knows what I'd give away
   Db
To feel you one more time
