F#      G#m           D#m           C#
It gets old when you talk to the sun
      F#          D#m
In a tongue understood by no one
F#     G#m        D#m                 C#
Can it be that I hear what he's saying?
             F#             D#m
Is there a reason why I'm still awake?

              F#           G#m     D#m
And he says, "I've got you written
in a black book by the railroad track.
C#       F#          D#m
You see, I know your fate." (Ooh)
          F#             G#m    D#m
And I say, "you've got to listen,
                                C#
I'm a songbird with a brand new track. You
F#       D#m
underestimate."

Chorus:
D#m           C#             F#      G#m
I'll give you something to believe in
D#m        C#               F#    G#
Burn up a basement full of demons
D#m C#            F#            A#m          F#
Realize you're a slave to your mind, break free
            G#
Now give me something to believe in

D#m  C#     F#
Just give me
D#m  C#       F#            G#
Just give me something to believe in

Everyday when I speak to the moon
Pale as a ghost in the afternoon
Tragedy has a hold of my mind
But I can see the light between the lines

And I say, "You've got to listen;
I'm a songbird with a brand new track.
You underestimate."

Chorus

(Oh-oh oh-oh) Promise me
(Oh-oh oh-oh)
See, I'm afraid— I'm a slave to my mind
You give me something to believe in

"I've got you written in a black book
by the railroad track. You see,
I know your fate." (Mm)
And I say, "You've got to listen;
I'm a songbird with a brand new track.
You underestimate."

Chorus:
I'll give you something to believe in (Ah-ah ah-ah)
Burn up a basement full of demons (Oh-oh oh-oh)
Realize you're a slave to your mind, break free
Just give me something to believe in

Just give me
Just give me something to believe in
