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
AE
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
ED
I'll let you build your home in me until the clocks run down
A
when your luck's run out
ED
call me and I will coem and fix you, get your feet on the ground
A
when there's not way out
EA
call me and I will come and bury you, all safe and sound
A-A-A-A (power chord)
DAE
all this time, you've been drifting out with the tide, my friend
DAE
but you can have what's mine, if it helps you stay afloat
DAE
if I close my eyes, it's 'cause I can't watch you drown anymore, my friend
DAE
but I'll tell you lies if it helps you sleep at night
DAE
and the more we fight, the more we don't get right, my frien
DAE
the more we fight, the more we don't get right
AED
I heard they broke you, that you gave in
F#M
that you dropped and the the fight had left you
AED
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
ED
I'll let you build your home in me until the clocks run down
A
when your luck's run out
ED
call me and I will coem and fix you, get your feet on the ground
A
when there's not way out
EA
call me and I will come and bury you, all safe and sound
