Intro: G Bm F# D Em C

Verse:
G                            Bm
If you could see what I see now
                    F#                  D
You gotta know Iʼm looking up, oh, so proud
                           Em         C
The one I used to hold is, oh, so special
  G                                         Bm
Mmm, and every setback now but a chance to grow
                            F#       D
If further proof that youʼre phenomenal
                                    Em          D
You better believe it that you are something special

Whoa, oh, whoa
G                                      Bm
Afraid to fail, oh, same as afraid to try
                       F#               D
These are the days to accept all the invites
                                 Em        C
ʼCause youʼre so cool and, baby, on the level

Chorus:
Am               D
Oh, and someday you
     G                Em                   Am
May find yourself in the place that I now do
             D
And someway you, yeah
                  G         Em        Am
Youʼre gonna have to let it go, whoa, oh
           D
And I got proof
            G         D         Em
ʼCause my heart, it aches and breaks (Ah-ah-ah)
        D         C
But I believe in you

Itʼs the truth

Verse:
G                                           Bm
And itʼs okay, should this life knock you down
                                F#                  D
The twisted wheel, you know it keeps on spinning ʼround
                                Em        C
Bet on yourself, your numberʼs, oh, so special
G                                                   Bm
Mmm, and when it gets fucked up you need a helping hand
                                F#             D
Do it yourself, youʼre not the type to need a man
                                             Em     C
But if you find one, he better know youʼre damn special

Chorus:
Am               D
Oh, and someday you
     G                Em                   Am
May find yourself in the place that I now do
             D
And someway you, yeah
                  G         Em        Am
Youʼre gonna have to let it go, whoa, oh
           D
And I got proof
            G         D         Em
ʼCause my heart, it aches and breaks (Ah-ah-ah)
        D         C
But I believe in you
        C
Whoa, ainʼt it, oh, ainʼt it the truth?

G Bm F# D Em C

Verse:
  G                                           Bm
Mmm, remind yourself and find what makes you free
                              F#               D
Itʼs goal to Go and time to find out what you seek
                   Em       C
And in between, avoid the devil
G                                                     Bm
Oh, and if the night grows long, youʼre not feeling loved
                     F#                 D
I will be there and not ʼcause itʼs my job
                                Em        C
I work for free because youʼre both so special

Chorus:
Am
Oh, ainʼt it (Ah-ah)
    D
Oh, ainʼt it the truth?
G             Em                 Am
We believe, believe, believe in you
               D
We all got something
    G             Em
We all got something to prove
Am            D
Oh, out of everyone
                 G
Youʼre not just anyone (Ah-ah)
D          Em      D     C
Youʼre the one and only you
   C                G
We done all we can do

G Bm F# D Em C
