Tuning: Standard
Listen to the song to get the strumming. This certainly isn't perfect, but it sounds
Capo on 1st fret.
[Verse 1]
AmAre there no fighters left here any Cmore?
AmAre we the generation we've been waiting Cfor?
Or are we Fpatiently burning
C G Am G (2 fast double strums with palm mute)
Waiting to be saved?
AmOur heroes and icons have mellowed with Cage
AmFollowing rules that they once disoCbeyed
FThey're now being led
When thCey used to Glead the AmwayG  
[Chorus]
Do you Fstill believe in Call the things
that Gyou stood by befAmore?
Are you Fout there on the fCront lines
Or Gat home keeping Amscore?
Do you Fcare to be the Clayer of the Gbricks that seal your Amfate?
Or would you Frather be the architect of Gwhat we might create?
[Verse 2]
AmThey laid out the blueprints, they poured down a bCase
AmConcrete solutions to slow our deCcay
FAnd when they are gone
C G Am G (2 fast double strums with palm mute)
Who the f*ck's gonna take their place?
AmWill it be the cynics, the critics Cgalore?
AmCliche apathetic passed out on the Cfloor
FThe trusting complicit who CcollectiveGly igAmnoreG  
[Chorus]
Do you Fstill believe in Call the things
that Gyou stood by befAmore?
Are you Fout there on the fCront lines
Or Gat home keeping Amscore?G  
Do you Fcare to be the Clayer of the Gbricks that seal your Amfate?
Or would you Frather be the architect of Gwhat we might create?
[Bridge]
AmDon't you remember when you were young
AmAnd you wanted to set the world on Ffire?
Somewhere deep Gdown, I know yoAmu do
AmAnd don't you remember when we were young
AmAnd we wanted to set the world on Ffire?
Because I still Gam and I still Amdo
Make no Fmistake Cwe are not aGfraidAm  
To bear the Fburden of reCpeating
What they're Gthinking anyAmway
Let's raise the Fstakes Con the bet we GmadeAm  
Let's decFide to be the Carchitects
The Gmasters of our Amfate
[Final Chorus]
Yeah we Fstill believe in Call the things
that Gyou stood by befAmore
And Fafter everytChing we've seen here
GMaybe even Ammore
And I kFnow we're not the oCnly ones Gwe were not the Amfirst
UnapologeticaFlly we'll stand behind each woGrdAm
