That's why I believe, taken from the brilliant truth and beauty album.
Ian McNabb proving that you don't need loads of chords to write a brilliant song
INTRO:  D   GX2
VERSE 1:
You're Ddriving in your car, a little tune you used to know comes on the Gradio
DWind your window down the sunlight pouring through the windscreen, a little Gwind may blow
DPull up to red light, ease your seat back, take a breath and watch the Gpeople pass
DWhen it turns to green again, put your foot down, turn it up and Gtake it in
CHORUS:
CThat's why GI beDlieve, Cthat's why GI beDlieve
BREAK:  D  G  
VERSE 2:
DWhen you leave the city all the colours are so pretty that they Gcome alive
DNow you can't help thinking of the time when you were younger but that's Gquite alright
DMemories of circus lights, kisses on midsummer nights that Gfelt so real
DWith you're daddy at the fair, running through the tall grass, is that Gplace still there
CHORUS:
CThat's why GI beDlieve, Cthat's why GI beDlieve
BREAK:  D   GX4
VERSE 3:
DNow you're getting close to home, could that be a hint of rain, it's Gthat time of year
DFunny how you rush into a store for an umbrella then the Gclouds all clear
DDrive into the neighbourhood, you never see the neighbours but that's Gfine with you
DAnd there she is at the window, smiling, laughing, waving, and you Ghave to tell yourself it's true and
CHORUS:
CThat's why GI beDlieve, Cthat's why GI beDlieve
CHORUS:
CThat's why GI beDlieve, Cthat's why GI beDlieve
ENDING:  D   GX4 D
