Safe Sex
Jim Steinman
as performed by Pandora's Box

Am                       
No one ever said I was a gullible girl
F                     G
I don't believe every-thing that I'm told
C                      Em
I've been around and I know the ropes
      F
And I won't get fooled again

Am           
I don't believe in no fairy tales
F                      G
I don't believe in the man in the moon
       C              Em
And no pot of gold or anything else
   F
Is waiting at the rainbow's end

Eb                 Bb             F
I got no illusions now, I guess I lost them long ago
Eb               Bb                        C7      D
You're not gonna get me with this, cause I already know

             G       C
Baby there's no such thing
        G          Em
Baby it just ain't true
            Am Em/G D/F#  Am/E Bm7  Em
And there's no such thing as   safe sex
        C        D      Em
When it comes to loving you
        C        D      C
When it comes to loving you

        C                    G/B
There's always the danger of losing control
       Am                    D
And of breaking my heart and exposing my soul
        C                            G/B
There's just no protection from that look in your eyes
       Am                         D
Or the touch of your hands when I break down and cry
        Em                 Bm
There's always the risk of surrendering more
       C                Am
Than I ever intended to do
            Am Em/G D/F#  Am/E Bm7  Em
And there's no such thing as   safe sex
        C        D      Em
When it comes to loving you
        C        D      C
When it comes to loving you

Am       
I don't believe in the boogie man
F                     G
I don't believe in no pie in the sky
        C                          Em
You can wish upon a star until the stars are gone
F
That doesn't mean it's really so

Am
There's no such thing as a Santa Claus
F                                G
There's no such thing as getting money for nothing
       C                          Em
And no yellow brick road is gonna take you there
    F
Wherever you've been trying to go

Eb                Bb
We'll never be as young as this 
          F              
No matter how we try, we grow
Eb                 Bb
You're not such an innocent boy 
      C7      D
And I already know

             G       C
Baby there's no such thing
        G          Em
Baby it just ain't true
            Am Em/G D/F#  Am/E Bm7  Em
And there's no such thing as   safe sex
        C        D      Em
When it comes to loving you
        C        D      C
When it comes to loving you

        C                    G/B
There's always the danger of giving too much
        Am
Love is often a drug
        D
Love is often a crutch
        C                  G/B
There's no guarantee I can handle it all
    Am
The higher the climb
    D
The longer the fall
        C                    G/B
There's always the danger of losing control
       Am                    D
And of breaking my heart and exposing my soul
        C                            G/B
There's just no protection from that look in your eyes
       Am                         D
Or the touch of your hands when I break down and cry
        Em                 Bm
There's always the risk of surrendering more
       C                Am
Than I ever intended to do
            Am Em/G D/F#  Am/E Bm7  Em
And there's no such thing as   safe sex
        C        D      Em
When it comes to loving you
        C        D      C
When it comes to loving you
