[Intro]
| D | G | D | G |
[Verse]
D
From my window I see roads
G D
Lead to darkness, leading home
G D
In the midnight of a soul's unsleeping
G D
Hear the waterfall of women weeping
G D
Hear the distant noise of traffic stalling
G D G
Hear the prostituted children calling (calling out)
[Bridge]
Bm A Bm
From the barred and mesh-floor streets
A D A G
Of a winter's night, without a moon
[Chorus]
D G
I am safe - hidden here (I am safe - hidden here)
| D | G | D | G | D | G |
Hiding out
[Verse]
D
I look over chequered fields
G D
And the towering web of steel
G D
Young and old will sit and judge unfeeling
G D
While the empty churches' bells are pealing
G D
And the green hills lay ignored, untended
G D
The lonely watchers remain unbefriended
[Bridge]
Bm A Bm
And out in the one-way streets
A D A G
Is a swelling maze, without a door
[Chorus]
D G
I am safe - hidden here (I am safe - hidden here)
| D | G |
[Outro]
D G
I am safe - hidden here
D Bm
I am safe - hidden here, I am safe
D G
I am safe - hidden here
D G
I am safe - hidden here
D G
I am safe - hidden here
(repeat and fade – voc ad lib)
