You Must Believe In Spring
Words & Music by Marilyn & Alan Bergman, Jacques Demy & Michel Legrand
Recorded by Tony Bennett, 1976
Em7 G/B A7sus4 A7 F#m7 Bm Bm7
When lonely feelings chill the mea - dows of your mind,
G G/B A7 A7/9 A7 Gdim A7-9 DM7
Just think if Win - ter comes, can Spring be far behind?
G#m7 Fdim(III) C#7 F#m7 Cdim B7
Beneath the deepest snows, the secret of a rose
Em7 G/B A7/9 A7 Gdim D B7
Is merely that it knows you must believe in Spring!
Em7 G/B A7sus4 A7 F#m7 Bm Bm7
Just as a tree is sure its leaves will reappear;
G G/B A7 A7/9 A7 Gdim A7-9 DM7
It knows its emp - ti - ness is just the time of year
G#m7 Fdim(III) C#7 Gm7 Gdim B7
The frozen mountain dreams of April's melting streams;
Fm7 Fdim Bb7 Gdim Dm7
How crystal clear it seems -- you must believe in Spring!
Em7 G/B A7sus4 A7 F#m7 Bm Bm7
You must believe in love, and trust it's on its way,
G G/B A7 A7/9 A7 Gdim A7-9 DM7
Just as the sleep - ing rose a - waits the kiss of May
G#m7 Fdim(III) C#7 F#m7 Cdim B7
So in a world of snow, of things that come and go,
Em7 G/B A7sus4 A7 Gdim A7-9 B7
Where what you think you know, you can't be certain of,
G5 G5/F# G/B A7sus4 A7+5 Bm
You must believe in Spring and love.
