C, G, Am, F X2

Verse 1
C              G                        Am                      F
Our words came out sharp like edges of knives
C               G               Am                      F
When all we needed was to talk things through
C               G             Am                        F
This is a process of  learning that love is
C               G        Am             F
Not what we say but what we do

Pre-chorus
C               G
This is my country
Am              F
This is your country too
C                       G               Am              F
There are so many things we need to change
C               G               Am              F
It’d be too easy to let them overwhelm us
C               G               Am              F
It’d be too easy to let things stay the same

Chorus
C    G     Am F C    G      Am    F
Am I Safe Here (yes you’re safe here)
C    G     Am F C                       G               Am                       F
Am I needed here (yes you’re needed here, yes you are yes you are)

Verse 3
C               G               Am              F
They told us that this was not our problem
C         G             Am              F
How this was none of our concern
C                       G       Am      F
And then they chiselled and they chiselled and chiselled 
        C       G        Am     F       C       G       Am              F
until everything we loved and everything we earned was taken away from us

Pre-chorus
C               G
This is my country
Am              F
This is your country too
C                       G               Am              F
There are so many things we need to change
C               G               Am              F
It’d be too easy to let them overwhelm us
C               G               Am              F
It’d be too easy to let things stay the same

Chorus
C    G     Am F C    G      Am    F
Am I Safe Here (yes you’re safe here)
C    G     Am F C                       G               Am                       F
Am I needed here (yes you’re needed here, yes you are yes you are)

Bridge
G       
Am                           F                       G
While we stood around and talked about it
Am  C              F        G
They took it all away
        Am                                  F
While they argued about the cost
G                                       F                   Am  G   C
They brought it back and said here you go, pay, pay, pay 

F, Am G

Verse 5
C         G       Am        F      C         G       Am        F
We won’t remember any of these meetings
C               G               Am               F      C         G       Am        F
We won't remember the things you did or did not own
C            G               Am                  F      C         G       Am        F
This is the part where you throw your hands up in the air
C            G               Am                  F      C         G       Am        F
You said I thought I could but I can't do it on my own

Pre-chorus
C               G
This is my country
Am              F
This is your country too
C                       G               Am              F
There are so many things we need to change
C               G               Am              F
It’d be too easy to let them overwhelm us
C               G               Am              F
It’d be too easy to let things stay the same

Chorus

Am I Safe Here (yes you’re safe here)
C    G     Am F C                       G               Am                       F
Am I needed here (yes you’re needed here, yes you are yes you are)
C    G     Am F C    G      Am    F
Am I Safe Here (yes you’re safe here)
C    G     Am F C                       G               Am                       F
