(How You Ever Gonna Know)
Verse 1
That old wind [G]that's whippin' out there
It's whis[G]tlin' your tune[E]
That wind blew pyramids [A7]to Egypt
And footpri[C]nts to the moon[D]
And that old star[G] that you been wishin' on
Is shinin' mighty bright[E]
But it's the fire[A7] inside your heart
That's gonna lead [C]you to the light[D]
1st Chorus:
How you ever gonna know[C]
What it's like to live[G] there
How you ever gonna know vi[C]ctory[G]
How you ever gonna know[C]
What it's like [G]when dreams become reality[Am][D]
How you ever gonna know[C]
How it feels to hold [G]her
How you ever gonna know[C]
What it's like to dance[G]
How you ever gonna know[C]
If you nev[D]er take [C]a chan[G]ce
Verse 2
You know failure is[G]n't failure
If a lesson from it's lear[E]ned
I guess lov[A7]e would not be love
Without a risk o[C]f being burned[D]
Anything[G] in life worth havin'
Lord, it has its sacrifi[E]ce
But the gif[A7]t that you're receiving[Em]
Is worth[C] more than the price[D]
2nd Chorus:
How you ever gonna know[C]
What it's like to live[G] there
How you ever gonna know[C]
What you never knew[G]
How you ever gonna know[C]
If you're down here doin'[G]
What the good Lord put y[A7]ou here to do[D]
How you ever gonna know[C]
If you could have done it[G]
How you ever gonna know[C]
How it feels to fly[G]
How you ever gonna know[C]
If you neve[D]r dare [C]to try [G]
Bridge:
Listen not [Em]to the critics[D]
Who put their own d[G]reams on the shelf[C]
If you wa[Am]nt to get the truth to admit it[G]
You gotta find o[C]ut for yourself[D]
3rd Chorus:
How you ever gonna know[C]
What it's like to be [G]there
How you ever gonna know[C]
If you're the be[G]st
How you ever gonna know[C]
What you believe[G] in
If you don't put i[Am]t to the test[D]
How you ever gonna know[C]
How it feels to hold [G]him
How you ever gonna know[C]
What livin' mean[G]s
How you ever gonna know[C]
If you nev[D]er chase [C]the dream[G]
How you ever gonna know[C]
Your potent[G]ial
How you ever gonna know vic[C]tory[G]
How you ever gonna know[C]
What it's like[G] when dreams
Become[Am] reality[D]
How you ever gonna know[C]
How it feels to hold[G] her
How you ever gonna know[C]
What it's like to dance[G]
How you ever gonna know[C]
If you never t[D]ake the [C]chance [G]
