I (C)used to think that I could not go (Fm6)on,

and (C)life was noth ing but an aw ful (Fm6)song.

There But (C)now I know the mean ing of true (Fm6)love.

I’m (C)lean ing on the ev er last ing (Fm6)arms.

(E)If I can (Am)see it,

then I can (Fm6)do it.

If I just be (C)lieve it,

there’s noth ing (Dm7)to it.

I be lieve I can (C)fly,

I be lieve I can (Am)touch the sky.

I think a bout it ev ’ry (Dm7)night and day,

spread my wings and (Dm7)fly a way.

I be (G#dim)lieve I can (Am)soar,

I see me run ning through that (Fm6)o pen door.

I be lieve I can (C)fly,

I be lieve I can (Fm6)fly,

I be lieve I can (Am)fly.

Some (C)times was si ing lence can seem so (Fm6)loud.

There are (C)mir a cles in life I must a (Fm6)chieve,

then I can (Fm6)be it.

I be lieve I can (C)fly,

I be lieve I can (Am)touch the sky.

I think a bout it ev ’ry (Dm7)night and day,

spread my wings and (Dm7)fly a way.

I be (G#dim)lieve I can (Am)soar,

I see me run ning through that (Fm6)o pen door.
