F#  		A		F#
I thought love was only true in fairy tales 

F#		  A		   F#
Meant for someone else but not for me 

A 		F#
Love was out to get to me 

A 		   F#
That's the way it seemed

A		F#	Eb
Disappointment haunted all my dreams 
 

(play riff 2 for this section)
And then I saw her face 
Now I'm a believer 
Not a trace 
Of doubt in my mind 

	F#
I'm in love 

B	F#
I'm a believer 

	   E 		  (riff 1)
I couldn't leave her if I tried 
 

I thought love was more or less a given thing 
But the more I gave the less I got, oh yeah 
What's the use in trying 
All you get is pain 
When I wanted sunshine I got rain 
 
And then I saw her face 
Now I'm a believer 
Not a trace 
Of doubt in my mind 
I'm in love 
I'm a believer 
I couldn't leave her if I tried 
 
What's the use in trying 
All you get is pain 
When I wanted sunshine I got rain 
 
And then I saw her face 
Now I'm a believer 
Not a trace 
Of doubt in my mind 
I'm in love 
I'm a believer 
I couldn't leave her if I tried 

(riff 2 until end) 
Then I saw her face 
Now I'm a believer 
Not a trace 
Of doubt in my mind 
Now I'm a believer 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 
I'm a believer 
I'm a believer 
I'm a believer
