[Verse 1] (Repeat intro tab for line 1, 2, 4 and 5 of verse)
 
(Tab)         Am
Sometimes I'm beaten
(Tab)         Am
Sometimes I'm broke
A#6      C          F                                  C
             'Cause sometimes city this is nothing but smoke
(Tab)      Am
Is there a secret?
(Tab)      Am
Is there a code?
A#6    C          F                         C   A#6
   Can we make it better? 'cause I'm losing hope
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Am                        C
Tell me how to be in this world
F                                     C
Tell me how to breathe in and feel no hurt
F                              C
Tell me how could I believe in something
F            C   A#6
I believe in us
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
(Tab)     Am
After the wreckage
(Tab)     Am
After the dust
A#6              C        F                C
I still hear the howling, I still feel the rush
(Tab)    Am
Over the riots
(Tab)         Am
Above all the noise
A#6             C      F                 C    A#6
Through all the worry, I still hear your voice
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Am                            C
So, tell me how to be in this world
F                                    C
Tell me how to breathe in and feel no hurt
F                               C
Tell me how 'cause I believe in something
F            C  A#6
I believe in us
Am                          C
Tell me when the light goes out
F                                        C
That even in the dark we will find a way out
F                               C
Tell me now 'cause I believe in something
G            Am
I believe in us
 
 
[Bridge]
 
Dm7  Em#5  F                      F
              We used to be kids living just for kicks
F  G  Am                   Am
          In cinema seats, learning how to kiss
Am  A#6  C                                          C
          Running through streets that were painted gold
G                                     F     G
  We never believed we'd grow up like this
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Am                           C
So tell me how to be in this world
F                                     C
Tell me how to breathe in and feel no hurt
F                               C
Tell me how 'cause I believe in something
F            C   A#6
I believe in us
Am                          C
Tell me when the light goes out
F                                       C
That even in the dark we can find a way out
F                               C
Tell me now 'cause I believe in something
G            Am
I believe in us

I believe in something
G (r)
And I believe in us
