This is my first "tab". I tried to play it by ear and it may not be up to scratch but if you have a similar strumming pattern to me then it'll sound all right. Intro: G D Em C (x2) Verse 1:
G
Listen,

D               Em        C
 I can hear a voice,

         G
I need a helping hand,

D                  Em     C
 just to beat the void.

         G
I need a mission,

                    D
a dream to stop me talking to myself

             Em
and now the silence is broken

        C
and my soul is to sell

           G
I need to pick up the pieces,

    D
to scatter to the wind

          Em
hold the city to your ears

             C
and you can hear the wind come in.
Chorus:
         Em               G
But you can't change the world with a song

         Em            G
and you can't make it right when it's wrong.

G                         D                           Em
I cannot stop this music travelling round with me wherever I go,

     C
it's playing for you.

G                         D                      Em
I cannot stop the voice unravelling round me whatever I do,

     C
it's talking to you.

G                       D
The world dances to the rhythm of its own

       Em                 C
heart beating for you, however you lose.

G              D
So speak to me

  Em                 C
believe, believe, believe me.
Verse 2:
       G          D                   Em      C
Don't let it slip, through your fingertips.

      G              D
When there's a ghost,

                    Em         C
don't try to reason with it.

                 G
Because now I'm tired, I'm wired,

     D
so I will not miss a thing.

          Em
I rope my words out to dry

          C
and I've forgotten what to sing
Chorus:
         Em               G
But you can't change the world with a song

         Em            G
and you can't make it right when it's wrong.

G                         D                           Em
I cannot stop this music travelling round with me wherever I go,

     C
it's playing for you.

G                         D                      Em

     C
it's talking to you.

G                       D
The world dances to the rhythm of its own

       Em                 C
heart beating for you, however you lose.

G              D
So speak to me

  Em                 C
believe, believe, believe me.
Bridge:
   G                     D
If that's what it was to you,

     Em                    C
then that's what it was to me.

   G                     D
If that's what it was to you,

     Em                    C
then that's what it was to me.

   G                     D
If that's what it was to you,

     Em                    C
then that's what it was to me.
Chorus:
         Em               G

So speak to me

  Em                 C
believe, believe, believe me.

  Em                 C
believe, believe, believe me.
