Aaron Tippin - I Believed
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: G+G C majorC G+G C majorC G+G
In a tiny town where the biggest things
FF
Were the water tower and a young boy's dreams, I believed
G+G
In a little house of simple means
FF
Where doing without was a common scene, I believed
D MajorD
On a dried up square of worthless earth
G+G
Where we scratched our living out of the dirt, I believed
D MajorD
In a little brown church where I first heard
G+G G/F# E minorEm
The choir sing and the preacher's word, I believed, oh I believed
C majorC D MajorD
And the closer that I look within, the further I could see
C majorC D MajorD G+G
And I really didn't have much other choice, so I believed
In a high-rise world of steel and glass
Where a man dies young if he don't think fast, I believed
On the streets where the truth is hard to find
And what's in it for me is the bottom line, I believed
In a place where people don't care
They turn their backs like you're not there, I believed
Yeah, where anything goes and usually does
I held my breath and bit my tongue, I believed, oh, I believed
The closer that I looked within, the further I could see
And I really didn't have much other choice, so I believed
BRIDGE:
D MajorD G+G
In a higher place, in a deeper faith
D MajorD G+G
In a power stronger than you or me I believed
INSTRUMENTAL: G+G FF C majorC G+G FF C majorC G+G
Now when they put that granite on my grave
FF
All I want that stone to say is I believed
G+G
In where I'm from and the woman I loved
FF G+G
The job I did and god above, I believed, I believed, I believed
