            Am              G            D

    and reach your hostage heart despite

             G                D           C

    the doubts you harbor, then you might

      Am           D           G     - D

    come to believe in me.

 

            G      D         C

2. The life I lead is not the kind

            Am          G         D

    that gives a woman peace of mind.

3. Those other loves that came before

               Am       G        D

    mean nothing to me anymore.

             G           D       C

    But you can never be quite sure,

             Am          D          G

    and will not believe in me.

 

      Em                                         Bm

+  Too many hearts have been broken,

      C            D                      G

    failing to trust what they feel.

    But trust isn't something spoken,

            C                     G                     D    - D7 - D - D7

    and love's never wrong when it's real.

 

       G          D     C

4. If I could only do one thing,

           Am         G         D

    then I would try to write and sing

    a song that ends your  questioning,

            Am                 D          G

    and makes you believe in me !

            C                     G                     D    - D7 - D - D7

    and love's never wrong when it's real.

    a song that ends your  questioning,

            Am                 D          G

    and makes you believe in me,

            Am                 D          G

    and makes you believe in me.
