[Verse 1]
G D G
I thought love was only true in fairy tales.
G D G
Meant for someone else but not for me.
C G
Love was out to get me
C G
That's the way it seemed.
C G D N.C.
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.
[Chorus]
During the chorus guitar 2 should play the guitar 2 intro riff over each line of the chorus.
G C G
Then I saw her face,
C G C G
now I'm a believer
C G C G
Not a trace
C G C G
of doubt in my mind.
C G (one stroke then mute) C (one stroke)
I'm in love, ooh
G (one stroke) F (one stroke) D (Riff below)
I'm a believer! I couldn't leave her if I tried.

[Verse 2]
G D G
I thought love was more or less a given thing,
G D G
Seems the more I gave, the less I got.
C G
What's the use in tryin'?
C G
All you get is pain.
C G D N.C.
When I needed sunshine I got rain.
[Chorus]
G C G
Then I saw her face,
C G C G
now I'm a believer
C G C G
Not a trace
C G C G
of doubt in my mind.
C G (one stroke then mute) C (one stroke)
I'm in love, ooh
G (one stroke) F (one stroke) D (Riff x2)
I'm a believer! I couldn't leave her if I tried.
[Solo]
The solo for this song is very simple even for a beginner and sounds great
when played over the song's chords.
