Verse:
A5                B5            A5                  B5
And there I stood just like a soldier I was tough, until I saw her
A5             B5
I said Hello, but she just turned away
A5          B5                    A5
Hey Romeo, whatcha doin' with my girl,
B5                               A5  B5           C#5 
Who are you abusing now, well I turn and walk away   (Turn and walk away)
Bridge:
A5         B5          A5                 B5
I'm gonna please her, now you can believe it
C#5            A5                         B5
I'll be there to catch you when you falls
Chorus: (as Intro)
 
Oooo, here I am
E5          B5          B5    A5 
On the edge of a broken heart    I'm a man
E5          B5          B5     A5
On the edge of a broken heart    Here we stand
E5          B5          B5     A5
On the edge of a broken heart
       C#5                                     A5
So run if you can 'cause you know I'm a man on the edge
E5          B5          B5     A5
On the edge of a broken heart     I'm on the edge
E5          B5          B5     A5 
On the edge of a broken heart 
Verse:
I'm on the outside, looking inside
You're with him, who's on the wrong side now
Do you still think of me
I've tried to call, but no one answers
Two silhouettes, who're probably dancing
Lights go dim, as the music starts to play
(Turn and walk away)
Bridge:
I'm the one who needs you, now you can believe it
I'll be there to catch you when you fall
Chorus:
Ooo you better believe I'm the man
(On the edge of a broken heart)
Here I am
(On the edge of a broken heart)
And we stand
(On the edge of a broken heart)
So run if you can 'cause you know I'm a man on the edge
(On the edge of a broken heart)
I'm on the edge
(On the edge of a broken heart)
Interlude:
                      E5
Ooohh And when I hold out my hands
A5                B5
I'll be reaching for you
E5                                             
I give it all that I've got, that's all I can do
                         A5                          B5  E5
When you're waiting for love I'll be waiting for you  
Chorus:
(On the edge of a broken heart)
Only for you
(On the edge of a broken heart)
Oh baby for you
(On the edge of a broken heart)
So run if you can, you know I'm a man on the edge
(On the edge of a broken heart)
I'm on the edge
(On the edge of a broken heart)
I'm on the edge
(On the edge of a broken heart)
I'm on the edge
(Of a broken, broken, broken, broken, broken, broken, broken)
