     B                F#
 Are we growing up or just going down?
             E                          G#m       F#
 It's just a matter of time until we're all found out
          B                     F#
 Take our tears and put them on ice
         E                                G#m
 Cause I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light


[VERSE 1]
                G#m  E        F#           B
 We're the therapists pumping through your speakers
G#m    E         F#       B
 Delivering just what you need
       G#m      E    F#
 We're well read and poised 
B             G#m  E  F# B
 We're the best boys
               G#m E       F#        B
 We're the chemists who've found the formula
G#m           E     F#        B
 To make your heart swell and burst
G#m        E         F#           B       G#m  E F# B
 No matter what they say, don't believe a word


[PD-C HORUS 1]
       E                 B                  G#m            B
 Cause I'll keep singing this lie if you'll keep believing it
 E                 B
 I'll keep singing this lie 
 G#m               F#
 I'll keep singing this lie

[VERSE 2]
       G#m      E    F#
 We're traveled like gypsies
 B   G#m         E        F#       B
 Only with worse luck and far less gold
      G#m           E       F#
 We're the kids you used to love
B         G#m       E  F# B
 But then we grew old
             G#m E     F#       B
 We're the lifers here till the bitter end
G#m    E   F#       B
 Condemned from the start
G#m      E      F#
 Ashamed of the way 
     B             G#m      E    F#             B
 The songs and the words own the beating of our hearts

 
[PD-C HORUS 2]
       E                 B
 Cause I'll keep singing this lie
 G#m               F#

[CHORUS 2]
           B                         F#
 There's a drug in the thermostat to warm the room up
              E                        G#m       F#
 And there's another around to help us bend your trust
            B            F#
 I've got a sunset in my veins
       E                                G#m        F#
 And I need to take a pill to make this town feel okay

 The best part of "Believe" is the "Lie",

 I hope you sing along and you steal a line

 I need to keep you like this in my mind
    G#m        F#
 So give in or just give up
