Tabbed by : San Miguel
Email:sanmiguel1@gmail.com
Tuning: Standard
Note: I dont think this tab is 100% correct, but its almost there. This is based on the
from the album Empire, though it is sometimes played differently live.
during the verses, there some slight changes here and there, and although I am not going
tab all of them, there are really easy to hear during the song.

(scratch a couple of times) (let ring)
For the Chorus, Im not sure if all the chords are bar chords, but it sounds better to
the normal chords if you are playing it by yourself.
Chorus
G Bm Em C Em A
We're gonna make it through, we're gonna make it through now
G Bm Em C Em A
(Cause) We're gonna make it through, we're gonna make it through now
C Em A
And the circus leave this town
G Bm Em C Em A
We're gonna make it through, we're gonna make it through now
G Bm Em C Em A
We're gonna make it through, we're gonna make it through now
C Em A
And the boys with their dreams
C Em A
For the boys and their dreams
I know you can hear me
there is another guitar playing over the top of the chorus, but im not going to tab it.
