Chords with lyrics
Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)
E MajorE
A augmentedA single mother with two children mak-in lunches in the morning
And on her way to work, she drops them off at school
A/C#A/C# A augmentedA E MajorE
And tells them, faith in me, faith in you
A augmentedA farmer kneels in his fields with dust pour-in' through his fingers
Says I'm gonna lose you if it don't rain real soon
A/C#A/C# A augmentedA E MajorE
He looks up and says, faith in me, faith in you
Chorus:
BB E/G#
Whoa, whoa! I have to have faith
A augmentedA
That's where it all starts
BB E/G#
I know I have to have faith in myself
A augmentedA A minorAm
It's free and it's found right here in my heart
E MajorE C#m7C#m7 F#m7F#m7 E/G#
And when I think about things and all the dreams I wanna see come true
A augmentedA
Let me tell you just what I do
E MajorE BB E MajorE
I take a look in the mirror and I smile and say have faith in me, faith in you
E MajorE
In the shadow of the city, by the banks of the river
From the doorway of his cardboard room
A/C#A/C# A augmentedA E MajorE
A augmentedA man cries out, faith in me, faith in you
E MajorE
If over poverty and prejudice, over hunger and pain,
Over social injustice, just once let the voices ring
A/C#A/C# A augmentedA E MajorE
Here them sing, faith in me, faith in you
REPEAT Chorus:
E MajorE BB E MajorE
I take a look in the mirror and I smile and say have faith in me, faith in you.
