Safe Here ? Craig Cardiff
Capo 4
This is probably my favourite song by Craig. From the album Floods and Fires.
Intro:
C, G, Am, FF X2
Verse 1
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
Our words came out sharp like edges of knives
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
When all we needed was to talk things through
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
This is a process of learning that love is
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
Not what we say but what we do
Pre-chorus
C majorC G+G
This is my country
A minorAm FF
This is your country too
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
There are so many things we need to change
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
It?d be too easy to let them overwhelm us
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
It?d be too easy to let things stay the same
Chorus
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
A minorAm I Safe Here (yes you?re safe here)
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
A minorAm I needed here (yes you?re needed here, yes you are yes you are)
Verse 3
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
They told us that this was not our problem
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
How this was none of our concern
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
And then they chiselled and they chiselled and chiselled
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
until everything we loved and everything we earned was taken away from us
Pre-chorus
C majorC G+G
This is my country
A minorAm FF
This is your country too
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
There are so many things we need to change
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
It?d be too easy to let them overwhelm us
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
It?d be too easy to let things stay the same
Chorus
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
A minorAm I Safe Here (yes you?re safe here)
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
A minorAm I needed here (yes you?re needed here, yes you are yes you are)
Bridge
G+G
A minorAm FF G+G
While we stood around and talked about it
A minorAm C majorC FF G+G
They took it all away
A minorAm FF
While they argued about the cost
G+G FF A minorAm G+G C majorC
They brought it back and said here you go, pay, pay, pay
F, A minorAm G+G
Verse 5
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
We won?t remember any of these meetings
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
We won't remember the things you did or did not own
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
This is the part where you throw your hands up in the air
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
You said I thought I could but I can't do it on my own
Pre-chorus
C majorC G+G
This is my country
A minorAm FF
This is your country too
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
There are so many things we need to change
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
It?d be too easy to let them overwhelm us
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
It?d be too easy to let things stay the same
Chorus
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
A minorAm I Safe Here (yes you?re safe here)
C majorC G+G A minorAm FF C majorC G+G A minorAm FF
