Carrie Newcomer - I believe

I be^Clieve there are some ^Fdebts that we can ^Cnever repay ^F And I be^Clieve there are some ^Fwords that you can ^Cnever unsay ^F And I don't ^Dmknow a single ^Csoul who didn't get ^Dmlost along the wa^Cy ^{F G7}

I be^Clieve in socks and ^Dm7gloves, knit ^Cout of soft grey ^Dm7wool And that ^Cthere's a place in ^Dm7heaven for those who ^Cteach in public ^Dm7school And I ^Dmknow I get some ^Cthings right, but ^Dmmostly I'm a fo^Col ^{F G7 C Am}

I believe in a ^Fgood strong cup of^C ginger te^Ga And^Am all these ^Fshoots and roots will ^Cbecome a ^Gtree All I kno^Amw is I can't ^Fhelp but see ^CAll of this a^Gs so very^F holy ^G

^N.C.I be^Clieve in jars of ^Fjelly put ^Cup by careful ^Fhands And I be^Clieve most folks are ^Fdoing just a^Cbout the best they ca^Fn And I ^Dmknow there are some ^Cthings that I will ^Dmnever understa^Cnd ^{F G7 G Am}

I believe there's ^Fhealing in the ^Csound of your ^Gvoice And that^Am a summer to^Fmato is a ^Ccause to re^Gjoice And that^Am following a ^Fsong was never ^Creally a cho^Gice, never ^Freally ^G

I be^Flieve in a good long ^Cletter, written on real ^Dm7paper and with real ^Cpens I be^Flieve in the ones I ^Clove and know I'll^Dm7 never see a^Cgain I be^Flieve in the kindness of ^Cstrangers and the ^Dm7comfort of old ^Cfriends And when I ^Fclose my eyes to ^Csleep at night,^Dm7 it's good ^Cto say “A^Fmen” (Amen^G___)

I be^Clieve that life's com^Fprised of smiles and ^Csniffles and tears^F And in an ^Cold coat that still ^Fhas a^Cnother good yea^Fr And I ^Dmknow that I get ^Cscared sometimes, but ^Dmall I need is ^Chere ^{F G7 C Am}

I believe in a ^Fgood strong cup of^C ginger te^Ga And^Am all these ^Fshoots and roots will ^Cbecome a ^Gtree All I kno^Amw is I can't ^Fhelp but see ^CAll of this a^Gs so very^F holy ^G

I be^Flieve I be^Flie^Cve I be^Flieve I be^Flie^Cve
