So I'm asking you, is it safe


Chorus:

C          Dm       Bb
(Is it safe,) is it safe to land?
C                    Dm              Bb
'Cause I'm not going far on an empty heart
C         Dm      Bb
Is it safe, is it safe to land?
           C                 Dm                   Bb       F
'Cause the long fall back to earth is the hardest part



Bridge/Climax:

C                      Bb     F
I'm in no weather for apologies
C                            Bb       F
I need your runway lights to burn for me
Am                  Bb
And if you say that I can come around
Bb
I will love you right
               C            Dm
Yeah, I won't let you down
Dm        Bb
I won't let you down
               C    Dm
Cuz I'm coming home
                         Bb
If these wheels touch down
           C
I'm coming home
               Dm
I'm waking you up
                     Bb
In the middle of the night I'm not giving up
          C
I'm gonna stay
               Dm
Til we make it work
                Bb
We're not going down, even if it gets worse
              C       Dm
We'll work it out
           Bb
Yeah we'll work it out
            C        Dm
I need your light
         Bb
Guide me in


C - Dm - Bb repeat until end of song; end on C :


Oooh, ooh oh oh oh

Yeah, is it safe?


End:


Great song. There is a missing note or chord that has been bugging me - especially
during the climax of the song, the note changes at the end of a lyric and I can't
figure it out, so if anyone else catches that and can improve this, that would be
