Yearning, well, for something more Chorus: [G] [F] [Am] [C] [G] [F] [Am] [C][G][F][Am] .........We're on the verge ohh hoo....we're on the verge [intro pattern again] Verse: Fresh tar off the railroad ties bind us to that lonely route Keep the home fires burning if the ember's ever going out I'm on the verge of stealing that river forded in great haste Give the cup of grief to me but thirst is all that we can taste Chorus:
