1. You want a no-risk guarantee before you take a chance,

D G D G A

you want to know how the song will end before you start to dance.

D G D G

Well, I can't foretell the future but my heart clearly sees

D G D Bm G A - A7

your hand in mine for a long, long time if you could just believe.

D A

And take a leap of faith, cast away your doubt,

Bm G

darlin', come what may, we can work it out,

D Bm A - G - A

a love that's real will always find a way !

D A

If you'll trust in me like I trust in you,

Bm G

there's no rain or fire that we can't go through.

D Bm G - A

The first step's always the hardest one to take :

D

It's a leap of faith !

D G D G D

2. I understand all your doubts and fears of laying your heart on the line,

D G D G A

but aren't you afraid of just throwing away a love like yours and mine ?

D G D G

I know your heart's been broken, you've been let down before,

D G D

though the stakes are high give it one more try,

Bm G A - A7

this time you can be sure !

D A

And take a leap of faith, cast away your doubt,

Bm G

darlin', come what may, we can work it out,

D Bm A - G - A

a love that's real will always find a way !

If you'll trust in me like I trust in you,

Bm G

there's no rain or fire that we can't go through.

The first step's always the hardest one to take :

D

It's a leap of faith !
