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.
Capo: Not needed. (But you can play it with the capo on 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th)

Intro:     (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
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.
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
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

heart beating for you, however you lose.
G              D
So speak to me
