                      Standing on the Edge of Goodbye

By John Barry


Intro:

D    |    G    |     D   |    G   |

1st Verse:

D            |                 G               |
  Its been a long time since I held her close.

D                  |                G            A
  We missed placed feelings that we used to know.

Bm               D               G            |
  Thought I good see between the lines I read.

Em            G            A                |
     I wasn't ready we she turned to me and said.


Chorus:

A           G               D
    I can't eat and I can't sleep.

D           G               D
Sometimes I find it hard to breath.

D               Em              D                 G
I breakdown and cry not knowing why.  Now I can't lie...

G       |               |           D     |    A    |
    I'm standing on the edge of goodbye.


2nd Verse:

D                  |                 G                |
  All of the those years came rushin through my mind.

D           |                G            A
  I found myself back.. in a simpler time.

Bm                D              G               |
   Just two young kids runnin on fire and dreams.

Em                G                 A              |
And in her eyes I realized, she was calling out to me.Chorus 2:

A                 G               D
She said, I can't eat and I can't sleep.

D           G               D
Sometimes I find it hard to breath.

D               Em              D                 G
I breakdown and cry not knowing why.  Now I can't lie...

G       |               |           D     |      A     |
    I'm standing on the edge of goodbye.     Goodbye.


Interlude:

Bm         |              G                |
I would do anything... to let.. her.. know.

Em               Bm                 G           A
   There just no way my heart can..     let her go.


Chrous3:

A               G               D
  Cause I can't eat and I can't sleep.

D           G               D
Sometimes I find it hard to breath.

D               Em              D                 G
I breakdown and cry not knowing why.  Now I can't lie...

G       |               |           D     |      A    |
  She's standing on the edge of goodbye.     Goodbye


A               |           D      |
Standing on the edge of goodbye...

G               |           D      |
Standing on the edge of goodbye...

G               |           D      |      G     D
Standing on the edge of goodbye...
