The Briggs - Oblivion
C C/B Am
Crept up to the edge of exhaustion
F Am G
a platoon of memories rush in.
C C/B Am
Does salvation come to everyone
F Am G
when you separate the body from the mind?
Em Am
Temptation can drive a man insane
F G
only with himself to blame.
C Am
And I’m standing on the edge of oblivion,
C Am
standing on the edge of oblivion.
G
And I’ll put my best foot forward,
put my best foot forward.
C C/B Am F Am G
C C/B Am
It’s impossible to pretend all is well
F Am G
when life is organized by fear.
C C/B Am
Wrapped up in a neatly packaged hell
F Am G
and the reason still remains unclear.
Em Am
I’ve mastered the art of complications
F G
‘til every possibility’s been named.
C Am
And I’m standing on the edge of oblivion,
C Am
Standing on the edge of oblivion.
C Am
Standing on the edge of oblivion.
G
And I’ll put my best foot forward,
put my best foot forward.
[solo:] C C/B Am F Am G (x2)
Em Am
With a wealth of disappointment stacking high
F G
on a foundation built on who’s to blame.
Em Am
It’s leveled when you find the victims
F G
and the perpetrators are one in the same.
C Am
Standing on the edge of oblivion.
C Am
Standing on the edge of oblivion.
C Am
Standing on the edge of oblivion.
G
And I’ll put my best foot forward,
put my best foot forward.
[Outro:] C C/B Am F Am G (x4) fade out...
Ii'm pretty sure this is right..
