Am E7 Dm 
Am E7 Dm 
Am

Verse:
   E7              Dm 
I canʼt quite explain
                Am
This hole in my brain, that’s come around again
     E7              Dm 
The West Hampstead Reds
           Am                   E7
Send me to bed and head off out again
                      Dm 
Some things have to change
                     Am
Some things are to blame
                   E7
For almost everything
                   Dm 
Some boys grow in shame

Pre-chorus:
                 Am
Donʼt play that game

Chorus:
          E7              Dm 
ʼCause I want you to believe
                 Am
Youʼre just like me
   E7              Dm 
I want you to believe
              Am
Youʼre just like me
   E7              Dm 
I want you to be free
       Am
To be happy
    E7            Dm 
I want you to believe (I want you, I want you to)
               Am
Youʼre just like me (I want you to)

Verse:
E7                            Dm 
  Just another California tongue
          Am
Prove me wrong
                                E7
But I think they all sound the same
                                Dm 
It doesnʼt matter where youʼre from
             Am   E7
Talking that way, now
                        Dm 
Listen to the elevator hum
          Am                    E7
The mechanism is breaking down again
                   Dm 
Donʼt you tell my mum

I want you to believe
              Am
Youʼre just like me
   E7              Dm 
I want you to be free

To be happy
    E7            Dm 
I want you to believe
              Am
Youʼre just like me
