[Verse 1]
DPerceived safety in your neighbourhood
Did you ever really have it? Was it ever that good?
G'Cause there's a sex offender living 'round the block
Always standing at the window with his hand on his cock
EAnd I'll find it hard to see
AHow I'd raise my family in Dthis place
[Verse 2]
DLad on the corner wearing bumbag and shorts
GProbably gets his information from the Buzzfeed reports
DHe swore at Centrelink when he was a teen
GCooked his head from all the footy and amphetamine
EAnd I'll find it hard to see
AHow I'll raise my family in Dthis place
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm scared of noises in my Gheart, shut the gate to come Dnear me
It's a sick and sad Aworld but I wanna see cBmlearly
Turn my sensor light oGn, DI'm scared of the darkAsus  
[Chorus]
GOur neighbourDhood is Afull of sBmketchy places
GCreepy Dfaces and Acrackheads (Our neighbourhood)
GStreet Dfights that go iAnto the nBmight
EGetting nervous dGeadbolt windows at night
GTall Dpoppies, Abig fish in Bmlittle ponds
GI'm sick of Dbuzzing the Agutter (Our neighbourhood)
GWe get Dby, Apull down our bBmlinds
EIt's the only way we ever sleep Ggood
EClose the door on your neighbouGrhood
[Verse 3]
DSome common sense screamed across the fence
From the Gbloke who says your music foggy makes him tense
You hear him Dyell at his missus almost every day
But he Gtreats you like the animal anyway
Social pErejudice is fucked
Or is it Ajust my shitty luck that I'm Dhere?
[Chorus]
GOur nDeighbourhood is fAull of sBmketchy places
CGreepy fDaces and Acrackheads (Our neighbourhood)
GStreet fDights that go iAnto the Bmnight
GEetting nervous, Gdeadbolt windows and [?]
GTall Dpoppies, Abig fish in Bmlittle ponds
GI'm sick Dof buzzing the Agutter (Our neighbourhood)
WGe get bDy, Apull down our Bmblinds
IEt's the only way we ever sleep Ggood
EThink of moving 'cause you know that you Gshould
EClose the door on your nGeighbourhood
[Outro]
DWell, perceived safety in your neighbourhood
Perceived safety in your neighbourhood
Perceived safety in your neighbourhood

[Verse 1]

Perceived safety in your neighbourhood

Did you ever really have it? Was it ever that good?

'Cause there's a sex offender living 'round the block

Always standing at the window with his hand on his cock

And I'll find it hard to see

A D

How I'd raise my family in this place

[Verse 2]

Lad on the corner wearing bumbag and shorts

Probably gets his information from the Buzzfeed reports

He swore at Centrelink when he was a teen

Cooked his head from all the footy and amphetamine

And I'll find it hard to see

A D

How I'll raise my family in this place

[Pre-Chorus]

G D

I'm scared of noises in my heart, shut the gate to come near me

A Bm

It's a sick and sad world but I wanna see clearly

G D Asus

Turn my sensor light on, I'm scared of the dark

[Chorus]

G D A Bm

Our neighbourhood is full of sketchy places

G D A

Creepy faces and crackheads (Our neighbourhood)

G D A Bm

Street fights that go into the night

E G

Getting nervous deadbolt windows at night

G D A Bm

Tall poppies, big fish in little ponds

G D A

I'm sick of buzzing the gutter (Our neighbourhood)

G D A Bm

We get by, pull down our blinds

E G

It's the only way we ever sleep good

E G

Close the door on your neighbourhood

[Verse 3]

Some common sense screamed across the fence

From the bloke who says your music foggy makes him tense

You hear him yell at his missus almost every day

But he treats you like the animal anyway

Social prejudice is fucked

A D

Or is it just my shitty luck that I'm here?

[Chorus]

G D A Bm

Our neighbourhood is full of sketchy places

G D A

Creepy faces and crackheads (Our neighbourhood)

G D A Bm

Street fights that go into the night

E G

Getting nervous, deadbolt windows and [?]

G D A Bm

Tall poppies, big fish in little ponds

G D A

I'm sick of buzzing the gutter (Our neighbourhood)

G D A Bm

We get by, pull down our blinds

E G

It's the only way we ever sleep good

Think of moving 'cause you know that you should

E G

Close the door on your neighbourhood

[Outro]

Well, perceived safety in your neighbourhood
