Verse 1

G                     C     C/B  C/A   G
You slept through the last  small      town.

Em                        C              D
I'll wake you up when the next one comes around.

Your eyes are closed like you truly believe.

C                    D          G
That you're safe and sound with me.

Verse 2 (band enters)

No looking back, no turning into salt.
The city was crumbling, but baby, we're not to fault.
When things got too rough, I promised you we'd leave.
You're safe and sound with me.

Chorus

Em              D/F#        G        Bm
You're safe and sound, with me-ee-ee ah-ah,

C    C/B      G
Just like you always will,

C    C/B      G           D
Just like you always will be.


Verse 3

The wipers clear the windshield of the rain.
My shirt sleeve dries your eyes the very same.
We fit together like the ignition and the key.
You're safe and sound with me.

Repeat Chorus

Guitar Solo (Verse Chords)

Repeat Chorus

Verse 4

The glove box light shines bright enough to see
you read the map like you were reading poetry.
and it just might take you forever to see
that you're safe and sound with me.
