   After the wreckage

Bridge:
F                                     F G Am
 Used to be kids living just for kicks
                                     Am
In cinema seats, learning how to kiss
C                                              G
 Running through streets that were painted gold
                                    F
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 could I believe in something
 F             C Em
I believe in us
Am                          C
Tell me when the light goes out
                 F                       Am
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

I believe in something
   G
And I believe in us
