Capo 3rd fret

Intro: Em C G D [2x]

Em              C           G
I don't believe in anything but myself
  D                Em           C      G     D
I don't believe in anything but myself
Em              C           G                D
   But then you opened up a door, you opened up a door
    Em            C                 G       D
Now I start to believe in something else

Em            C      G               D              
   But how do I know if I'll make it through?
Em        C       G                    D     
   How do I know? Where's the proof in you?

Em     C     G          D   
   And so it goes, this soldier knows
Em          C          G            D                    
   The battle with the heart isn't easily won
Em     C     G          D  
   And so it goes, this soldier knows
Em          C          G            D  
   The battle with the heart isn't easily won
Em     C       G         D
       But it can be won
Em     C       G         D
       But it can be won

Em           C             G                  D
I sit in the back of a bus watching the world grow old
         Em              C             G     D
Watching the world go by all by myself
Em          C                 G                D
   I took a faithful leap and packed up all my things and
       Em               C                G     D
All my love and gave it to somebody else

Em            C      G               D              
   But how do I know if I'll make it through?
Em        C       G                    D     
   How do I know? Where's the proof in you?

Em     C     G          D   
   And so it goes, this soldier knows
Em          C          G            D                    
   The battle with the heart isn't easily won
Em     C     G          D  
   And so it goes, this soldier knows
Em          C          G            D  
   The battle with the heart isn't easily won
Em     C       G         D
       But it can be won
Em     C       G         D
       But it can be won
Em     C       G         D
       But it can be won
Em     C       G         D
       But it can be won

Em     C     G          D   
   And so it goes, this soldier knows
Em          C          G            D                    
   The battle with the heart isn't easily won
Em     C     G          D   
   And so it goes, this soldier knows
Em          C          G            D                    
   The battle with the heart isn't easily won
Em     C     G          D   
   And so it goes, this soldier knows
   (And so it goes)
Em          C          G            D                    
   The battle with the heart isn't easily won
   (The war is won)
Em     C     G          D   
   And so it goes, this soldier knows
   (And so it goes)
Em          C          G            D                    
   The battle with the heart isn't easily won
   (And so it goes)
Em     C       G         D
       But it can be won
Em     C       G         D
       But it can be won
