Hey, well i am back with another travis song again because i just love
the album! This time i have worked through Safe (all my own work) which
is not as hard as some of the songs on the album. The only thing beginners
might find a little difficult with this song are the movements between the
chords, which can be a little fast at some points, and also the strumming.
My advice would be to just keep listening to the song over and over until
you get it right basically!

Note (optional):To make the song sound better on every D MajorD add 11 chord of
each verse and pre-chorus, play a variation of the chord (both ways pictured
below) fast enough so the change is only slight. It's hard to explain but
if you listen carefully to the song you'll get what i mean.

Chords:
D-xx0232
Db-xx0132
D MajorD add 11-xx0032 or xx0033
Em-022000
G6-320000
C-032010 or 332010
