On The Safest Ledge

(intro 4x)  F G

(verse 1)
           Dm           Am
Don't look ahead, just run to me
           C                  G
Each step will find the next one recklessly
            Dm                 Am
We'll find ourselves on the safest ledge
          C                  G
Well, pardon me, I couldn't help myself
      F    G     F        G
Girl, fall into your life here
   F G      F        G
If only for a while, I'm here

(chorus 1)
C11        C        Bb          Am
Could you be happy to fall like a stone
         F    G     Am   Em         F   Fm
If you'd land right here safe in my arms?
     C11 C             Bb                Am
It's fine,  lock all your doors through the night
        F   G     Am    Em         F   Fm
Keep it all right here, safe in my arms
     F    G      F     G
It's fine,  it's fine

( F  G ) (2x)

(verse 2)

         Dm            Am          C            G
You felt alone before you ever really knew how alone you were
       Dm           Am
An empty house, a lonely room
      C                G
The TV talks the fear right out of you
                  F   G      F                 G
But you feel like someone's standing by, but you'll never know

(chorus 2)
C11        C        Bb          Am
Could you be happy to fall like a stone
         F    G     Am   Em         F   Fm
If you'd land right here safe in my arms?
     C11 C             Bb                Am
It's fine,  lock all your doors through the night
        F   G     Am    Em         F   Fm
Keep it all right here, safe in my arms
     (mute)
It's fine

(bridge)
    F   G     Am Em   Am                    C   G
The sun burns a  hole straight through your old flaws
       F    G      Am  Em  Am           Dm      G
If you look toward the sky even on your greyest night
F            G                   Am*          Am/G#
Could you be happy now, with the wind in your hair
         Am/G  Am/F#             F           G
And your eyes open wide and your feet going nowhere?

(chorus 3)
C11        C        Bb          Am
Could you be happy to fall like a stone
         F    G     Am   Em         F   Fm
If you'd land right here safe in my arms?
     C11 C             Bb                Am
It's fine,  lock all your doors through the night
        F   G     Am    Em         F   Fm
Keep it all right here, safe in my arms
     (mute)
It's fine
