[Intro: ]D |F#m7 | Em7 |  | 
 
        D          A                       Em7 
Got a letter from Davie just the other day 
D                A            Em7 
Living in Queensland was not OK 
D                          A              Em7 
Said he can't find the money just to pay the rent 
D 
And the food and the herb 
A                   Em7 
Well, they're just heaven sent 
 
 
CHORUS: 
F#m7         G           A          Bm7 
He's been living on the razor's edge 
     G          A          D 
And trying to touch the Sun 
    G         A                 Bm        Bm7   Em7 
And he wont fall for that same old trick again 
 
Cathy's all right 
she just gets lonely every day 
She's living in a day 
She's living in a dream world of yesterday 
and there she is, and here she'll stay 
"Well it just never worked out," she said anyway 
 
She's been living on the razor's edge 
And trying to touch the sun 
And she wont fall for that same old trick again 
 
Lulu's tired of living down beside Torquay 
She's getting herself together financially 
Says "One of these days I'm gonna lie in the sun 
But right now I'm wondering does that day ever come?" 
 
She's been living on the razor's edge 
And trying to touch the sun 
And she wont fall for that same old trick again 
 
Got a letter from Davie just the other day 
And the note just read "Please come to Byron Bay" 
Well the heart say's "Go" and the head says "Stay" 
And the big wheels just keep turning every day 
 
Don't go living on the razor's edge 
And trying to touch the sun 
'Cause you'll just fall for that same old trick again 
 
We're all living on the razor's edge 
And trying to touch the sun 
And we wont fall for that same old trick again
