Em   C   G   D       Em   C   D     Em   C   G   D     Em   C   D 
 
G  
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder 
              Em 
You get your fill to eat, but always keep 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 fate the fighting chance  
                                               D 
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance 
 
             Em  C  G  D 
I hope you dance 
             Em  C   D 
I hope you dance 
 
            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 
                                               D 
And when you get the choice to sit it out or 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 
 
             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 fate the fighting chance  
                                               D 
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance 
 
  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
