Dsus4                Am
Walk the edge of America.
Dsus4                           Am
A concrete beach to scrape my hand.
F                           G
Inside the subway stinking fear and shame
   Am        G       Am
becomes the violent breath.

Vigilantes out on dawn patrol
But now there's nothing left to hide
I'm just a number on the metal fence
Which marks the great divide

Chorus:
F        Am
Hey boy, Give your dreams a rest
F                            D
If you're tired of searching,
this is where it ends. There's nothing
F            Am
left to lose - nothing to protest.
E
Learn to love your anger now.
G             D7          F
Anger here is all you possess.
               Am
Welcome to the edge!

Below the towers of the citadel
Seems someone overlooked the cost
Forgotten soldier of paradise
Now paradise is lost

Recognition never realized
Salvation lost among the crowd
So tell me beside this sterile sea
Where is your nation now?
