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
