"I Hope You Dance"
Capo on 3
[Intro]
Em C G D Em C D x2
[Verse 1]
G
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
Em
You get your fill to eat, but always have that hunger
C
May you never take one single breath for granted
D
God forbid love ever leave you empty-handed
C D G
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
C D G
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
Am G C
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
Am D
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
[Chorus]
Em C G D
I hope you dance
Em C D
I hope you dance
[Verse 2]
G
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Em
Never settle for the path of least resistance
C
Living might mean taking chances, but they're worth taking
D
Loving might be a mistake, but it's worth making
C D G
Don't let some hell-bent heart leave you bitter
C D G
When you come close to selling out reconsider
Am G C
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance
Am D
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
[Chorus]
Em C G D Em C D
I hope you dance I hope you dance
Em C G D Em C D
I hope you dance I hope you dance
[Bridge]
C D G
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
C D G
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
Am G C
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
D
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
[Chorus]
Em C G D Em C D
Dance I hope you dance
Em C G D Em C D
I hope you dance I hope you dance
Em C G D Em C D
I hope you dance I hope you dance
Em C G D Em C D Em C G D Em C G Em
