I Hope You Dance

Intro:
Gm  Eb  Bb
Gm  Eb  F
Verse:
          Bb    
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
                         Gm
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger
                   Eb
May you never take one single breath for granted
                F
God forbid love ever leave you empty-handed

Pre - Chorus:
                      Eb  
I hope you still feel small 
                       F                        Bb
when you stand beside the ocean
                      Eb
Whenever one door closes, 
 F                             Bb
I hope one more opens
                    Cm
Promise me 
                               Bb/D                 Eb
that you'll give faith a fighting chance
                            Eb 
And when you get 
                                            F
the choice to sit it out or dance

Chorus:
                        Gm  Eb  Bb  F
I hope you dance
                         Gm  Eb  F
I hope you dance

Verse 2:
                        Bb
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
                Gm
Never settle for the path of least resistance
               Eb
Livin' might mean takin' chances, but they're worth takin'
                 F
Lovin' might be a mistake, but it's worth makin'

2 Pre - Chorus:
                Eb                          F                   Bb
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter
                                 Eb               F                Bb
When you come close to sellin' out, reconsider
                    Cm                     Bb/D
Give the heavens above more 
                           Eb
than just a passing glance
                              Eb
And when you get the choice 
                              F
to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance

I hope you still feel small 
                       F                        Bb
when you stand beside the ocean
                      Eb
Whenever one door closes, 
 F                             Bb
I hope one more opens
                    Cm

                               Bb/D                 Eb
