Biografía:
The Replacements, que en un principio se llamaron Impediments, fue formado en 1978 por el cantante, compositor y guitarrista Paul Westerberg, el batería Chris Mars, el guitarrista Bob Stinson y su hermano de 12 años Tommy en el bajo. Después de varios cambios de nombre, The Replacements, conocidos cariñosamente como 'Mats por sus más cercanos fans, se ganaron la atención de la gente de su Minneapolis natal, al combinar el glamour y el espíritu de los New York Dolls con la rabia adictiva de los Sex Pistols.

Okay, there may be a few lyrics that don't match up with what's printed online, but HEY.
It's The Replacements. It's not like Paul always sings his lyrics the same way everytime, anyway.
The verses are just arpeggiated Em / Cmaj7 chords, and the strum pattern is similar to this:
e|-----------------------------------------|
B|----------------------------0------------|
G|----------------------0-------0----------|
D|------2-----2---2---2-----2-----2--------|
A|----2-----2---2---3-----3----------------|
E|--0-----0--------------------------------|
Now here's the chords in the song:
The Ledge
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
[Verse 1]
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
All eyes look up to me
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
High above frozen streets
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
Heed no bullhorn when it calls
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
Watch me fly and die, watch me fall
[Chorus]
C
I'm the boy they can't ignore
D
For the first time in my life, I'm sure
C B
All the love sent up high to pledge
Won't reach the ledge
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
[Verse 2]
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
Wind blows cold from the west
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
I smell coffee, I smell doughnuts for the brass
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
A girl I knew once years ago
Em Cmaj7 Em
Is tryin' to be reached on the phone
[Chorus]
C
I'm the boy she can't ignore
D
For the first time in my life, I'm sure
C B
All the love sent up high to pledge
C
I'm the boy she can't ignore
D
For the first time in my life, I'm sure
C B
All the love sent up high to pledge
[Interlude]
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
[Solo]
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
C D C D
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
[Verse 3]
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
Priest kneels silent, all is still
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
Policeman reaches from the sill
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
Watch him try, try his best
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
There'll be no medal pinned to his chest
[Chorus]
C
I'm the boy they couldn't ignore
D
For the first time in my life, I'm sure
C
I'm the boy they couldn't ignore
D
For the first time in my life, I'm sure
C D
I'm the boy for the last time in my life
C
All the love that they pledge
D Em Cmaj7
For the last time will not reach the ledge
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
