D A A cause, a cause, I need a cause D G A cause a reason to sing D A I not be fraught, mislead, distraught D G Nor fall to suffer the sting Bm A Through life and death and sorrow and joy D G I find the courage to say D Hope is never lost! x3 Bm D Hope is never lost The faith, the faith, I put in life The faith I place in my dreams Is placed by me, misplaced I see When failure shatters the seams Of life and dreams and hope for the future And nothing leads me to say Hope is never lost! X4 I build, I burn, I borrow, I bend I will not see through the day What lies beyond is far beyond The plans I could never make To taste and touch all the joys I hope for When finally I die Hope is never lost! x4
