G
i believe in prophecy
G C G
some folks see things not everybody can see
G D G
and , once in a while , they pass the secret along to you and me
G
and i believe in miracles
G C G
something sacred burning in every bush and tree
G D G
we can all learn to sing the songs the angels sing

C D Em C G
yeah , i believe in god , and god ain’t me

G
i’ve traveled around the world ,
G C G
stood on mighty mountains and gazed across the wilderness
G D G
never seen a line in the sand or a diamond in the dust

G
and as our fate unfurls ,
G C G
every day that passes i’m sure about a little bit less
G D G
even my money keeps telling me it’s god i need to trust

C D Em C G
and i believe in god , but god ain’t us

G C G
god , in my little understanding , don’t care what name i call
G C G
whether or not i believe doesn’t matter at all

G
i receive the blessings
G C G
that every day on earth’s another chance to get it right
G C G
let this little light of mine shine and rage against the night

G
just another lesson
G C G
maybe someone’s watching and wondering what i got
G D G
maybe this is why i’m here on earth , and maybe not

C D Em C G
but i believe in god , and god is god
