CHORUS 1
I Cbelieve that she'd stop him
If she Emwould start to care

But I don't beGlong there C/G G C/G G

But she's Gnot when I'm C/GgoneG C/G G
CHORUS 2
Heaven Cknows that the answer
She’s not Emcalling no one
She's the Fway, forsaken beauty
For she's Cmine, for the one

By tempEmtation as it runs
But she Fmaj7don't holler me
But I'm not Gthere, I'm C/GgoneG C/G G

Now when CI treat to leave 'er
I was Emborn to love her

Well it's Gall about diffusion
And I Gcry for her veil
I don't Fneed anybody now

Yes, I beClieve that it's rightful
Oh, I beEmlieve it in my mind
