(G-D/F#)

(G) They said you ain't got a (D/F#) prayer, a chance in you-know-where (Em)
But I just didn't (C) care, when I looked in your eyes
(G) You were a long-shot from the (D/F#) start, an easy way to break my (Em) heart
But as perfect as you (C) are, you gotta risk it all sometimes

(Chorus)
(G) I believe in the (D/F#) underdog
(Em) Who chases dreams and (D) breaks down walls
(C) The shy kid who gets the (G/B) prom queen
Who's (Am) never been the star of (D) anything
And those (G) two lovers hitched at (D/F#) city hall
They've (Em) got each other, so they've (D) got it all
(C) Call me a dreamer, (G/B) say I'm a little (Am) naive
Oh, but (G/B) I (C) believe (D) in the underdog

(G-D/F#)
(G) We bought a 4-room fixer (D) up, on the side of town where times are (Em) tough
Short on cash, but long on (C) love, yeah, we sure showed it
(G) Then you gave me our little (D) man, so small he fit inside my (Em) hands
Two months early, two pounds, the (C) tallest kid in third grade now

Chorus

(G-D/F#-Em-D-C-G/B-Am-G-D)

(D) The bank's still breathin' down our (Em) necks
We're still (C) living (G) check to (D) check
Girl, we dig deeper every day (Em)
We still (C) hit our knees and pray (D)
We pray, we pray

(G) I believe in the (D/F#) underdog
(Em) Who chases dreams and (D) breaks down walls
How a (C) guy like me could get the (G/B) prom queen
I've (Am) never been the star of (D) anything
We were (G) two lovers hitched at (D/F#) city hall
We still (Em) got each other, so we (D) got it all
(C) Call me a dreamer, (G/B) say I'm a little (Am) naive
Yeah (G/B) you can (C) call me a dreamer, (G/B) say I'm a little (Am) naive
Oh, but (G/B) I (C) believe (D) in the underdog (G-D/F#)
Oh, in the underdog (Em-C)
I believe (G-D/F#-Em-C)
Yeah, in the underdog (G)
I believe (D/F#-Em)
Oh, in the underdog (C)
