[Verse 1]
Gm G# Fm
You go on and on and on and on and on
About your plight
Gm G#
Tell me, will you be alright?
Fm
Tell me if you'll be alright
Gm G#
You go on and on and on and on and on
Fm
As if I didn't care
Gm G#
And I wish I could be there
Fm
God, I wish I could be there for you
[Instrumental]
Gm G# Fm
Gm G# Fm
[Chorus]
Gm G# Fm
Stay back, come back, make up your mind
Gm G# Fm
'Cause I can feel it gettin' imminent
Gm G# Fm
I know you feel a bit resigned
Gm G#
And I have never been articulate
Fm Gm G# Fm
So say, are you safe?
Gm G# Fm Gm G# Fm
Are you safe? Are you safe?
Gm G# Fm Gm G# Fm
Are you safe? Are you safe?
[Verse 2]
Gm G#
Tryin' on my slip-on disguise
Fm
I'm wondering which wire I done tripped on this time
Gm G#
Stuttering in every language I have ever learned
Fm
And I'm usually hella good at feeling very unconcerned
Gm
But there's something in my eye
G#
Or it's something from the sky
Fm
Oh fuck it, I'm crying, now here's a bunch of reasons why
Gm G#
And maybe I should focus on the one that's most ferocious
Fm
I split my ribs open, ain't nobody even notice
Gm
Look at all this blood
G#
This whole damn kitchen's about to flood
Fm
Afraid to dirty up your hospital scrubs or fuck up your buzz
Gm G#
When I'm gone don't pretend like you didn't know what it was
Fm
And nah, I don't mean when I die
Gm G#
I mean when I leave without saying goodbye
Fm
'Cause I'm offended that I'm hurting and your care is denied
Gm
You just gon' stare at the sky?
G#
Alright, bet, I'ma bear it in mind
Fm
But when it hurts, don't compare it to mine
[Chorus]
Gm G# Fm
Stay back, come back, make up your mind
Gm G# Fm
'Cause I can feel it gettin' imminent
Gm G# Fm
I know you feel a bit resigned
Gm G#
And I have never been articulate
Fm Gm G# Fm
So say, are you safe?
Gm G# Fm Gm G# Fm
Are you safe? Are you safe?
Gm G# Fm Gm G# Fm
Are you safe? Are you safe?
