[Verse]
[G] I thought love was [D] only true in [G] fairy tales 
Meant [G] for someone [D] else but not for me [G] 
[C] Love was out to [G] get me (hammer on G from 333333 to simulate vocals below)
[C] That's the way it seemed [G] 
[C] Disappointment [G] haunted all my [D7] dreams

[Chorus - OPEN CHORDS]
Then I saw her 
[G] face [C] .. [G] .. Now [C] I'm a be
[G] liever!.... [C] ...... [G] ... [C] Not a 
[G] trace.. [C] ... [G] .. Of [C] doubt in my 
[G] mind... [C] ... [G] .. [C] I'm in 
(Drum pattern B S x S)
[G] Love (ooooh)
[C] (aah) I'm a 
[G] believer I couldn't
[F] leave her if I 
[D7] tried. (Full drums - riff - hammer on from x55555 x57775)

[Verse] 
[G] I thought love was [D] more or less a [G] givin' thing
[G] Seems the more I gave, [D] the less I got [G] 
[C] What's the use in [G] tryin'?
[C] All you get is pain. [G] 
[C] When I needed [G] sunshine, I got [D7] rain.

[Chorus]
Then I saw her 
[G] face [C] .. [G] .. Now [C] I'm a be
[G] liever!.... [C] ...... [G] ... [C] Not a 
[G] trace.. [C] ... [G] .. Of [C] doubt in my 
[G] mind... [C] ... [G] .. [C] I'm in 
[G] Love (ooooh)
[C] (aah) I'm a 
[G] believer I couldn't
[F] leave her if I 
[D7] tried. (Full drums - riff - hammer on from x55555 x57775)
