When You Believe

(Dm)Many nights we've (C)prayed, with (Am7)no proof (Dm)anyone could hear.

In our hearts a (Bb)hopeful song we (Gm7)barely (Am7)understood.

Now (D)we are not (C)afraid, although we know there's (Gsus)much to fear.

(Bb)We were moving (F)mountains long (C)before we knew we could.

(F)There can be miracles (C)when you believe.

(Dm)Though hope is (Am)frail, it's (Bb)hard to kill.

(F)Who knows what miracles (C)you can achieve?

(Dm)When you (Am7)believe, (Bb)somehow you will.

(Gm7)You will when (C)you (Dm)believe.

In this time of (C)fear, when (Am7)prayer so often (Dm)proves in vain,

hope seems like the (Bb)summer birds,

too (Gm7)swiftly flown (Am7)away.

Yet, (D)now I'm standing (C)here, my heart so full I (G)can't explain,

(Bb)seeking faith and (F)speaking words I (C)never thought I'd say:

(F)There can be miracles (C)when you believe.

(Dm)Though hope is (Am)frail, it's (Bb)hard to kill.

(F)Who knows what miracles (C)you can achieve?

(Dm)When you (Am7)believe,

(Bb)somehow you will

(Gm7)You (F)will when (C)you (F)believe.

(C)They don't always happen when you ask.

(Dm)And it's (Bb)easy to give (C)in to your (Fsus)fear.

(F)But (Bb)when you're blinded by your pain,

can't (C)see your way clear through the rain,

a (Dm7)small but still resilient voice says (Gm)help is very near.

(G)There can be miracles (D)when you believe.

(Em)Though hope is (Bm)frail, it's (Cmaj7)hard to kill.

(G)Who knows what miracles (D)you can achieve?

(Em)When you (G)believe, (Cmaj7)somehow you will,

(Em)now you will.

(Am7)You will when (D)you (Em)believe.

You will when you, you will when you

(G)believe, just (Em)believe,

(G)just (Em)believe.

You will when you (G)believe.
