The Center Of The Universe chords by Peter McPoland

• Difficulty: Beginner 👶

Verse 1:
    F
The sweat dripping off of my lips
    Bb
The blood dripping off of my brow
         F
I could really use a power trip
         Bb
I could really use an angel right now
          F
There's a violence I never thought real
         Bb
Between the crack in my palms
              F
And there's a silence you really can feel
          Bb
There's a dream I wanna wake up from

Chorus:
Bb                        C
Hey, hey, mama, would you look at me?
    F                          Bb
I'm sitting on the edge of the world
           Bb                     C
I've got a strong, strong urge to fly now
         F                      Bb
But I'm screaming like a little girl
Bb                         C
Hey, hey, mama, would you look at me?
       F                Bb
In the center of the universe
         Bb                         C
It's so pretty out here, but there's no way down
     F                           Bb
I'm fading, and it's starting to hurt
     F                           Bb
I'm fading, and it's starting to hurt

Verse 2:
        F
It's so tough when you feel it dig in
          Bb
You can't stand on the hallowed ground
          F
It starts showing like a murder grin
        Bb
You try screaming, but it don't come out
      F
Start counting down the breath in my lungs
         Bb
I take a big one, two in deep
      F
I try looking for the starting gun
      Bb
And I find it pointing right at me

Chorus:
Bb                        C
Hey, hey, mama, would you look at me?
    F                          Bb
I'm sitting on the edge of the world
           Bb                     C
I've got a strong, strong urge to fly now
         F                      Bb
But I'm screaming like a little girl
Bb                         C
Hey, hey, mama, would you look at me?
       F                Bb
In the center of the universe
         Bb                         C
It's so pretty out here, but there's no way down
     F                           Bb
I'm fading, and it's starting to hurt
     F                           Bb
I'm fading, and it's starting to hurt

Bridge:
              Bb     C     F
But there's a tough, slick kid
        Bb C  F
Looking up at me
       Bb    C   F
And he blows his lid
         Bb   C   F
And he's good and mean
       Bb   C   F
And he cuts me loose
    Bb F C
And I become
    Bb   F  C
The pain of yesterday
        Bb F    C
And the setting sun

Chorus:
Bb                        C
Hey, hey, mama, would you look at me?
    F                          Bb
I'm sitting on the edge of the world
           Bb                     C
I've got a strong, strong urge to fly now
         F               Bb
And the big sail came unfurled
Bb                         C
Hey, hey, mama, would you look at me?
       F                Bb
In the center of the universe
         Bb                         C
It's so pretty out here, but there's no way down
     F                         Bb
I'm standing on the top of the Earth
       F                          Bb
See me standing on the top of the Earth?
       F                          Bb
See me standing on the top of the Earth?
       F                          Bb
See me standing on the top of the Earth?
