F                    G6
I was always running, always hurt
Am                       G6
But I couldn't let it go, it was too
hard to get going
F                      G6
And I kept hoping that you would run first
Am                    G6
I couldn't let it go, you were too good to know

Dm          C
You were my own
             Am
The memories hold
            G6
They're overgrown

F
But now I know
        G6
There's no climbing over
           Am                        G6
Because I know you'll never see me through

Chorus:
                   F                   G6
But I can feel my heart racing down on me
                  F                  G6
Feeling like the sun setting on the sea
                    F                  G6
It's getting to the edge of what could be
                 Am                    G6
I can't fight it off, I can't fight it off

Oh, you know you could've had it all
But you want me like your crown
And it seemed your favorite thing to do
Was to keep me in the dark and turned around

You can say I'm crazy for giving up
You can wave your sayings like a flag
You can wave high over your head
You can sing your song to bring me again

You were my own
The memories hold
They're over grown
Moments of the past
Have dimmed too much
To bring us back

Chorus:
But I can feel my heart pressing down on me
Feeling like the sun setting on the sea
It's getting to the edge of what could be
I can't fight it off, I can't fight it off

Well, I can feel my heart pressing down on me
Feeling like the sun setting on the sea
It's getting to the edge of what could be
I can't fight it off, I can't fight it off

F
No I can't, no, I can't fight it off
G6
No I can't, no, I can't fight it off
F
No I can't, no, I can't fight it off
G6
No I can't, no, I can't fight it off
(Over and over, over and over)

F
No I can't, no, I can't fight it off
G6
No I can't, no, I can't fight it off
Am
No I can't, no, I can't fight it off
G6
No I can't, no, I can't fight it off
(Over and over, over and over)

Chorus:
Well, I can feel my heart pressing down on me
Feeling like the sun setting on the sea
It's getting to the edge of what could be
And I can't fight it off, I can't fight it off

Edge of what could be
Edge of what could be
Edge of what could be
Over and over, over and over
Edge of what could be
Edge of what could be
Edge of what could be
Over and over, over and over
