This is a terrific and very underrated song. I couldn't find any chords on the

One Belief Away

Intro: 
Am, F, C, G (x2)

Verse 2
Am                        F                      C                      G
Last night I thought I found you, 

Am                        F                      C                      G
I saw it in a dream 

Am                        F                      C                      G
I was tangled in the rushes, baby, 

Am                        F                      C                      G
You were caught up in the stream 

Bridge

Am                                                     C
And the more I tried to reach you, The more you slipped away 

Dm                                                        F
And when I woke up in the darkness, I was callin' out your name 

(Chorus) 
C   Dm   C    G (x2) 

C       Dm           C        G
You and I we dance around it 

C       Dm           C        G 
Why is the truth so hard to say

C                 Dm            
We long for true love, well, 

C                           G
We've found it, it's just One Belief Away 

C      Dm         C           G




Am  F   C  G (x2) 

Am                        F                      C                      G
There's a shadow in the garden 

Am                        F                      C                      G
And it's coiled around our hearts 

Am                        F                      C                      G
Won't you help me to believe you, baby, 

Am                        F                      C                      G
Won't you show me where to start 

Am                                                     C
And the more I try to reach you, The more you slip away 

Dm                                                         F
I want to wake up in the darkness and hear you calling out my name 

(Chorus) 
C   Dm   C    G (x2) 

C       Dm           C        G
You and I we dance around it 

C       Dm           C        G 
Why is the truth so hard to say

C                 Dm            
We long for true love, well, 

C                           G
We've found it, it's just One Belief Away, 

Just one belief away
C      Dm         C           G

C Dm C G (x4) 

C       Dm           C        G
You and I we dance around it 

C       Dm           C        G 
Why is the truth so hard to say

C                   Dm            
We long for true love, well, 

C                            G
We've found it, it's just One Belief Away, 

C      Dm         C           G
One  belief away

C     Dm          C           G  (repeat until fade)
