Tabbed by Steve Cruickshank

This song is played in dropped-D and tuned down half a step, however
theres no reason why you cant play it in standard (it'll just sound
half a step higher than on the CD), but the riff pretty much requires
the low string to be dropped. All the chords written below are with
the tuning change as well.

C5
Sitting in a traffic jam 11:52pm
G/B                                   Riff 1 and 2
Just a few miles south of Carolina Ohio
C5
I take my pen and start to write the thoughts that fill my head tonight
G5
Nothing terribly profound, just these simple words
Bb5                                            C5
that keep my heart anchored down, that keep my restless heart anchored down


Chorus:
D5       C5           G5      Riff 2
I do, I do, I do, I do believe
D5         F5               Bb5              C5
I know, I know, I know, I know it's true, yeah
D5       C5           G5      C5
I do, I do, I do, I do believe
Bb   C        D   Riff 1 and 2
Lord I believe in you

Bridge:
Bb5   C5       Bb5                        C5
...Lord I believe in you, and if this faith in you is blind
D                   Riff 2
It's not to anything that's true
Bb5                    C5
Cause your love opens up my eyes
F5                    G5                      Riff 1
To see that everything I need is found when I believe in you


Chorus


Ending:
Bb5   C5     F5   G5        F5   G5
I believe, I believe, yes I believe in you
