			(How You Ever Gonna Know)


Verse 1
	      G
That old wind that's whippin' out there
	 G	          E
It's whistlin' your tune
		        A7	  
That wind blew pyramids to Egypt
	   C		    D
And footprints to the moon


		 G
And that old star that you been wishin' on
		         E
Is shinin' mighty bright
	         A7
But it's the fire inside your heart
		  C		    D
That's gonna lead you to the light


1st Chorus:

			   C
How you ever gonna know
		      G
What it's like to live there
			  C		G
How you ever gonna know victory
			   C
How you ever gonna know
	       G		 	   Am		D
What it's like when dreams become reality
			    C
How you ever gonna know

How it feels to hold her
			   C
How you ever gonna know
		        G

			   C
How you ever gonna know
	  D       C	G
If you never take a chance 


Verse 2

	           G
You know failure isn't failure
			  E
If a lesson from it's learned
	   A7
I guess love would not be love
	        C		       D
Without a risk of being burned


        G
Anything in life worth havin'
		        E
Lord, it has its sacrifice
	   A7		          Em
But the gift that you're receiving
        C			       D
Is worth more than the price

           Em 	         D
Listen not to the critics

Who put their own dreams on the shelf

You gotta find out for yourself
