INTRO (x4)
[F7]You don't have to believe m[Bb]e;
I'm just speaking my mind.
You look lovely as always;
You get that all the time.
You don't have to believe me
When I tell you that I'm impressed,
But you sure better believe me when I say you deserve the best. Come on!
INTRO (x4)
You don't have to believe me;
I'm not gonna lie.
I've seen all the attention
You get from other guys.
You don't have to believe me
When I tell you I like your dress,
But you sure better believe me when I say you deserve respect.
CHORUS:
It feels like [Bbmaj]nobody's on your sid[Eb7]e;
[Bbmaj]No access to your pride[Eb7].
[F7]You gotta learn to take control[Bb];
[F7]Your whole body is a temple s[Bb]o.
[Bbmaj]You've got a choice to mak[Eb7]e,
[Bbmaj]And your mind is what's at stak[Eb7]e.
[C]Before we build this lov[C7]e, please believe that you're good enough. (No!)
You don't have to believe me,
But I'm not often wrong.
They've been taking advantage,
And it's gone on too long.
You don't have to believe me
When we're dancing out on the floor,
But you sure better believe me when I say you are worth much more.
CHORUS
INTRO (x4)
[F7]You don't have to believe m[Bb]e[F7][Bb]
[F7]But you sure better believe me when I tell you you're due for love
I don't want [F7]nobody else, [Cm]and nobody else
[Bbmaj]Is gonna treat you the way they ought to, [F7]and that's what you deserve.
[F7]If I could make you see it, [Cm]so you can truly believe it,
[Bbmaj]So you won't even need it. No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
[F7]You don't have to believe me,
And I continue on
You've still got the potential
That you've had all along.
You don't have to believe me when
You're shaking what you got,
But you [F7]sure better believe me
When I tell you your mind's what's hot.
INTRO (x4)
[F7]You don't have to believe[Bb] me[F7]. [F5] [Bb] (x4)
