************* I DO BELIEVE **************
written and performed by Waylon Jennings.
Capo on the 1st fret.
Verse 1:
B E
In my own way i'm a believer
In my own way right or wrong
A
I don't talk too much about it
E
It's something i keep working on
B
I don't have too much to build on
E
My faith has never been that strong
Verse 2:
E
There's a man there in that building
He's a holy man,they say
A
He keeps talking about tomorrow
E
While i keep struggling with today
B
He preaches hellfire and brimstone
E
And heaven seems so far away
Chorus:
A E
I do believe in a higher power
One that loves us one and all
A E
Not someone to solve my problems
Or to catch me when i fall
A
He gave us all a mind to think with
E
And to know what's right or wrong
A
He is that inner spirit
B
That keeps us strong
Verse 3:
E
In my own way i'm a believer
But not in voices i can't hear
A
I believe in a loving Father
E
One i never have to fear
B
That i should live life at its fullest
E
Just as long as i am here
