[Intro]
F/E   Bbmaj7  Csus7- C7x3
F/E Bbmaj7 Csus7
[Verse]
F/E  Csus7-C7  
How can we go on believing
F  Csus7-C7  
when nothing ever works out right,
F  Csus7-C7  
How can we go on living,
F  Csus7-C7  
With all the heartaches we seem to invite
F  Csus7-C7  
What makes us keep on trying,
F  Csus7-C7  
When the pieces never seem to fit,
F  Csus7-C7  
And all the tears we cry and the lying,
That the Ftime is right to Csus7quit
[Pre-Chorus]
Csus7Somebody tell us Gm7how do we BbstartDm7  
What we Gm7started, C#this old thing has gone on far too long
[Chorus]
Dm7We aCin't Bbleaving, nothing in the CimaginatDm7ion
Dm7We aCin't Bbseeing, nothing but the Cend in sDm7ight
Dm7We aCin't Bbgiving, room enough for CinspiratDm7ion
Gm7How do we, Cgo on
F/E Bbmaj7 Csus7 C7
F/E Bbmaj7 Csus7
[Second verse]
F/E  Csus7-C7  
Now we can try and talk about it,
F  Csus7-C7  
And say that words can heal the deeper wounds
F  Csus7-C7  
But when our pride won't allow it,
F  Csus7-C7  
We might as well give it up for good
F  Csus7-C7  
Just when we get up the courage,
F  Csus7-C7  
And look each other in the eyes
F  Csus7-C7  
Something starts coming over us,
Must be the Flove that won't let us Csus7die
[Pre-chorus]
Somebody Csus7tell us how did Gm7we start, Bb  Dm7  
what we Gm7started, C#it's easier, much easier said than done
[Chorus]
Dm7We aCin't Bbleaving, nothing in the CimaginatDm7ion
Dm7We aCin't Bbseeing, nothing but the Cend in sDm7ight
Dm7We aCin't Bbgiving, room enough for CinspiratDm7ion
Gm7How do we, Cgo on
Dm7We aCin't Bbleaving, nothing in the CimaginatDm7ion
Dm7We aCin't Bbseeing, nothing but the Cend in sDm7ight
Dm7We aCin't Bbgiving, room enough for CinspiratDm7ion
Gm7How do we, Cgo on
