When You Believe — Carey Mariah

Mariah Carey - When You Believe

(Stephen Schwartz)

Bm                A            F#m         Bm
Many nights we've prayed, with no proof anyone could hear
Bm              D               Em          F#m
In our hearts a hopeful song we barely understood
    B           A                               Bm
Now we are not afraid, although we know there's much to fear
G              D                Em              A
We were moving mountains long before we knew we could

Chorus:
D                    A/C#
There can be miracles, when you believe
Bm             A           G
Though hope is frail, it's hard to kill
D                     A/C#
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
Bm          A
When you believe
    G            Em              A       Bm
Somehow you will,  you will when you believe

Bm                A            F#m         Bm
In this time of fear, when prayer so often proves in vain
Bm              D               Em          F#m
Hope seemed like the summer birds too swiftly flown away
    B           A                               Bm
Yet now I'm standing here, my heart's so full, I can't explain
G              D                Em              A
Seeking faith and speaking words I never thought I'd say

E                   B/D#
There can be miracles, when you believe
C#m            B           A
Though hope is frail, it's hard to kill
E                     B/D#
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
C#m         B
When you believe
    A            F#m             B      E
Somehow you will,  you will when you believe

E  C#m  A  B

           C#m           B/D#     E     B  E/G#
They don’t always happen when you ask
         C#m          B/D#       E     B/F#  E/G#
And it’s easy to give in to your fear
    A                   E/G#    B/F#
But when you’re blinded by your pain
      E        B/D#     C#m         B
Can’t see your way safe through the rain
C#m
Thought of a still resilient voice
     B
Says love is very near

Chorus:
F#                  C#/F
There can be miracles, when you believe
Ebm            C#          B
Though hope is frail, it's hard to kill
F#                    C#/F
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
Ebm         C#
When you believe
    B             Ebm
Somehow you will, now you will
B             C#     Ebm  C#
You will when you believe
B             C#     F#
You will when you believe
