INTRO:
|G Em7 G|G C/G Gsus2 G|
VERSE 1:
G C/G G Gsus2 G
I believe in prophecy,
Em7 C/G G Gsus2 G
Some folks see things not everybody can see.
Em7 D C/G G Gsus2 G
And once in a while, they pass the secret along to you and me,
Em7 G Gsus2 G
And I believe in miracles.
Em7 C/G G Gsus2 G
Something sacred burning in every bush and tree,
Em7 D G Gsus2 G
We can all learn to sing the songs the angels sing.
CHORUS 1:
C D Em7
Yeah, I believe in God,
C G C/G Gsus2 G
And God ain't me.
VERSE 2:
G C/G G Gsus2 G
I've travelled around the world,
Em7 C/G G Gsus2 G
Stood on mighty mountains and gazed across the wilderness.
Em7 D G Gsus2 G
And I've never seen a line in the sand or a diamond in the dust,
Em7 G Gsus2 G
And as our fate unfurls.
Em7 C/G G Gsus2 G
Every day that passes I'm sure about a little bit less,
Em7 D G Gsus2 G
Even my money keeps telling me, it's God I need to trust.
CHORUS 2:
C/G D Em7
And I believe in God,
C/G G C/G Gsus2 G
And God ain't us.
VERSE 3:
G C/G G Gsus2 G
And God of my little understanding, don't care what name I call,
Em7 C/G G Gsus2 G
And whether or not I believe doesn't matter at all.
N/C G Gsus2 G
I receive the blessings,
Em7 D G Gsus2 G
Every day on Earth's another chance to get it right.
Em7 C/G G Gsus2 G
Let this little light of mine shine and rage against the night,
Em7 G Gsus2 G
Just another lesson.
Em7 C/G G Gsus2 G
Maybe someone's watching and wondering what I got,
Em7 D G Gsus2 G
And Maybe this is why I'm here on Earth, and maybe not.
CHORUS 3 & CODA:
C/G D Em7
But I believe in God,
C/G G C/G Gsus2 G (Fade)
And God is God.
Joan Baez: "Thank you!"
