I Believe I can Fly - by R Kelly
				----------------
				Tabbed by Frederic Maquet


This is a nice little song, and although a bit corny, it's got
some good chord progressions...Anyway, I like it...It makes a
change from the usual indie stuff I tab.

Go on!  Email me corrections, stuff about Space Jam, random
info, etc... to f.maquet@ic.ac.uk



Intro: (lots of finger picking to make it sound good!)
------
C			Fm

Verse 1:
--------
  C				    Fm
I used to think that I could not go on,
    C				      Fm
And life was nothing but a longed-for song,
    C				   Fm
But now I know the meaning of true love,
    C				Fm
I'm kneeling on the everlasting lines.
	 Am		    Fm
If I can see it, then I can do it
	  Am			      G
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

Chorus:
-------
		C		     Am7
I believe I can fly, I believe I can touch the sky
		     Dm7
Thing about it every night and day, 
		    Dm7/G    (<-or G)
Spread my wings and fly away
		Am7				    Fm
I believe I can soar, I see me running through that open door
		Am7		     Fm
I believe I can fly, I believe I can fly
				Am7	Dm7/G
		I believe I can fly

Verse 2:  Same chords as verse 1
--------
    C			  	   Fm
See I was on the verge of breaking out,
Somtimes silence can seem so loud
There are miracles in life I must achieve
But first I know it starts inside of me  owhohhow
If I can see it, then I can be it,
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it.

Verse 3: 	shift gears, quire starts singing.

If I can see it, then I can do it

PS:  just to preserve my integrity, I borrowed the tape for this song
from my little sister who's 11.  So that's OK then.  I dedicate this 
tab to her, coz she's really cool, albeit slightly annoying at times!
