So go be careless with your love
B
And go be reckless till it hurts
A
Yeah, I'll pick up the pieces you're in
B
I'll always be your safety pin

And don't be precious, fill your lungs
B
And don't regret the things you've done
A
Yeah, I'll pick up the pieces you're in
B
I'll always be your safety pin
