A Rock Blues rendition of Its Safe To Be You that has an appeal to it. The preproduction cut for a band recorded rendition. As it turns out, I haven't found a band where everyone gets it yet... So that band recording is on hold for a time...
Americana in it's truest form. Blues Rock add Original Funk attitude. Current Cd Releases are available at www.cdbaby.com/cd/shaneobrien or the official OBRIES

Intro
It’s safe to be you ya. It’s safe to be you ya
It’s safe to be you ya. It’s safe to be you ya
Verse
I think I’ll get another drink babe, and think about everything ya
I think I’ll do the math about you and me
I’ll do everything, gonna do everything
That’s when I hear the ringing bells, ringing bells in my heart for you ya
That’s when I hear the call babe, the call, the ringin’ bells for you ya
Chorus
It’s safe to be you ya, that’s what she said to me
It’s safe to be Shane man, you can tell me anything
Verse
That when I have it going on now
That’s when I know I have it going on ya
I have a friend I can trust ya
Trust with anything
Chorus
It’s safe to be you ya, she said to me
Like only a woman knows
You can tell me, you can tell me anything ya
It’s safe to be Shane ya
It’s safe to be you ya. That’s what she said to me
It’s safe to be you. You can tell me
You can tell me anything ya, ya, ya
Verse
That’s when I told what rung the bell
I told her what rung the bell in my heart
My deepest desires and deepest secrets baby
A man tellin’ a woman everything
Chorus
It’s safe to be you ya, that’s what she said to me
It’s safe to be you ya, It’s safe to be Shane now
Verse
I told ‘bout what world I dreamt of now
I told her about the world, I dreamt I lived on ya, ya, ya
Where the clouds hum, hum
Were something you could reach up in the sky
Lay em down on your bed
Make your pillow late at night, ya, ya, ya. Like on cloud nine
Chorus
It’s safe to be you ya, that’s what she said to me
It’s safe to be Shane Ya. Tell me your deepest secrets and fantasies
Verse
So I told about the Love I had, when I was thirteen years old
I never really, really touched her now. I had nothin’ to hold
I know, that we had a thing going on
I know because I never forgot that little girl
The one I truly love, truly love now
Chorus
It’s safe to be you ya, she said to me
It’s safe to be you ya, tell me anything
It’s safe to be you ya, that’s right
It’s Safe to be Shane
