Electric President - Safe and Sound
Tabbed by Alexander Nachaj
It doesn't seem like anyone else tabbed this song out yet, so I decided to give it
a shot. The song is in A, and there might be another chord change at the end of
the verses, but meh, sounds good enough.
(Piano Chord Opening) A-A-A-A
A E
you took your hits, wear the bruises on the soles of your feet
D
well, whos to say if they're deserved?
F#M
but you're turning reckless now, I hear you saying through your teeth,
A
that you'll take them down first
E
but I saw you flinch when the doctors got their claws in you
D
I saw your smile start to crack
F#M
it's not so funny when you're sunk and there ain't nothing you can do
D
when your options are all dead ends
A
when there's no way out
E D
I'll let you build your home in me until the clocks run down
A
when your luck's run out
E D
call me and I will coem and fix you, get your feet on the ground
A
when there's not way out
E A
call me and I will come and bury you, all safe and sound
A-A-A-A (power chord)
D A E
all this time, you've been drifting out with the tide, my friend
D A E
but you can have what's mine, if it helps you stay afloat
D A E
if I close my eyes, it's 'cause I can't watch you drown anymore, my friend
D A E
but I'll tell you lies if it helps you sleep at night
D A E
and the more we fight, the more we don't get right, my frien
D A E
the more we fight, the more we don't get right
A E D
I heard they broke you, that you gave in
F#M
that you dropped and the the fight had left you
A E D
but don't you worry, it makes no difference
F#M
from the start your options were all dead ends
A
when there's no way out
E D
I'll let you build your home in me until the clocks run down
A
when your luck's run out
E D
call me and I will coem and fix you, get your feet on the ground
A
when there's not way out
E A
call me and I will come and bury you, all safe and sound
