VERSE 1:
C                                     Dm
I could just sit around, making music all day long. 
G                                             F  G      C    F
As long as I'm making my music ain't gonna do nobody no harm.
 C                                 Dm 
And who knows, maybe someday, I'll come up with a song 
G
To make people want to stop this fussing and fighting 
F              G     C
Long enough to sing along. 

CHORUS: 
C            Dm
I believe in music 
F - G             C
I - I  believe in love

VERSE 2:

People who believe in music are the happiest people I've ever seen 
C                                          Dm
So clap your hands and stomp your feet and shake those tambourines
G                                F         G        C 
Lift your voices to the sky, God loves you when you sing.

To peace and hope and understanding, and living in harmony 
C                                    Dm

Either repeat last line and finish or repeat chorus and fade.

This is not exactly the way it is played on the record.  An interesting dynamic is to raise the third verse and
 chorus by ½ tone,  e.g. from C to Db and then to finish with the final (repeat) chorus raised by an additional 
tone, e.g. D to E.
It’s a great ‘feel-good’ song which also has a great message.  Have fun.
