Edge of My Mind (B; 4/4; 130bpm; chords noted are for piano) (D#m; C#; B; C#; D#m) As I come around I’m scanning the ground What will I find It’s my turn now Will I drown (D#m with bass line- D#, C#, B, C#, D#, F#) At the edge of my mind I’ll know what I’ll find So no one can bring me down No slipping damn Can’t blame no one If I lose ground The strength I’ll find Will lock me down At the edge of my mind I’ll know what I’ll find So no one can bring me down Ride high on this wave High on this wave High on this wave Riding high C. 2012 Kristina Bill

about

Soaring and life-affirming alternative folk pop from Swedish songstress. Deeply personal, groovy and hypnotic with pathos and humour in equal measure. An album about longing, loving and letting go.
