Electric President - Safe and Sound
Tabbed by Alexander Nachaj
It doesn't seem like anyone else tabbed this song out yet, so I decided to give it
a shot. The song is in A, and there might be another chord change at the end of
the verses, but meh, sounds good enough.
(Piano Chord Opening) A-A-A-A
A E
you took your hits, wear the bruises on the soles of your feet
D
well, whos to say if they're deserved?
F#M
but you're turning reckless now, I hear you saying through your teeth,
A
that you'll take them down first
E
but I saw you flinch when the doctors got their claws in you
D
I saw your smile start to crack
F#M
it's not so funny when you're sunk and there ain't nothing you can do
D
when your options are all dead ends
A
when there's no way out
E D
I'll let you build your home in me until the clocks run down
A
when your luck's run out
E D
call me and I will coem and fix you, get your feet on the ground
A
when there's not way out
E A
call me and I will come and bury you, all safe and sound
A-A-A-A (power chord)
D A E
all this time, you've been drifting out with the tide, my friend
D A E
but you can have what's mine, if it helps you stay afloat
D A E
if I close my eyes, it's 'cause I can't watch you drown anymore, my friend
D A E
but I'll tell you lies if it helps you sleep at night
D A E
and the more we fight, the more we don't get right, my frien
D A E
the more we fight, the more we don't get right
A E D
I heard they broke you, that you gave in
F#M
that you dropped and the the fight had left you
A E D
but don't you worry, it makes no difference
F#M
from the start your options were all dead ends
A
when there's no way out
E D
I'll let you build your home in me until the clocks run down
A
when your luck's run out
E D
call me and I will coem and fix you, get your feet on the ground
A
when there's not way out
E A
call me and I will come and bury you, all safe and sound

I just noticed that most of the chord locations got all bugged out during formatting after I submitted the tab:S
During the verses, the chords should change at the end of each line, and the chorus and bridge chord changes should be a word or two earlier or later on each line. But if you listen to the song, it's easy to notice where and when.
And my apologies for the typos in the lyrics, I copied them off a forum.

you missed a D chord just before the last chorus
F#M D
from the start your options were all dead ends
A
when there's no way out
