The Briggs - Oblivion
CCrept up to the C/Bedge of exhAmaustion
a Fplatoon of Ammemories rush Gin.
Does sCalvation C/Bcome to everyAmone
when you Fseparate the Ambody from the mGind?
TempEmtation can drive a man inAmsane
Fonly with himself to Gblame.
And I’m stCanding on the edge of obAmlivion,
sCtanding on the edge of obAmlivion.
And I’ll pGut my best foot forward,
put my best foot forward.
C  C/B  Am    F  Am  G
CIt’s impossible to prC/Betend all is Amwell
Fwhen life is Amorganized by Gfear.
CWrapped up in a nC/Beatly packaged Amhell
Fand the reason Amstill remains unGclear.
I’ve Emmastered the art of compliAmcations
‘til Fevery possibility’s been Gnamed.
And I’m Cstanding on the edge of obAmlivion,
CStanding on the edge of obAmlivion.
CStanding on the edge of obAmlivion.
And I’ll Gput my best foot forward,
put my best foot forward.
[solo:]  C   C/B     Am   F   Am    G(x2)
With a Emwealth of disappointment stacking Amhigh
on a Ffoundation built on who’s to Gblame.
It’s Emleveled when you find the viAmctims
and the Fperpetrators are one in the Gsame.
CStanding on the edge of obAmlivion.
CStanding on the edge of obAmlivion.
CStanding on the edge of obAmlivion.
And I’ll Gput 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..
