Lee Ann Womack, I Hope You Dance (2000)
^{Key: :[Gm] (w: Mark D. Sanders, Tia Sillers)}

INTRO:
[Gm] [Eb] // [Bb] [F] // [Gm] [Eb] // [F] : [x2]

VERSE 1:
I [Bb] hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your [Gm] fill to eat, but always have that hunger
May you [Eb] never take one single breath for granted
God for-[F]-bid love ever leave you empty-handed

VERSE 2:
I hope you [Eb] still feel small when you [F] stand beside the [Bb] ocean
Whenever [Eb] one door closes I [F] hope one more [Bb] opens
Promise [Cm] me that you'll give [Bb] fate the fighting [Eb] chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or [F] dance

CHORUS:
I hope you [Gm] dance [Eb] [Bb] [F]
I hope you [Gm] dance [Eb] [F]

VERSE 3:
I hope you [Bb] never fear those mountains in the distance
Never [Gm] settle for the path of least resistance
Living [Eb] might mean taking chances, but they're worth taking
Loving [F] might be a mistake, but it's worth making

VERSE 3:
Don't [Eb] let some hell-bent [F] heart leave you [Bb] bitter
When you come [Eb] close to selling [F] out recon-[Bb]-sider
Give the [Cm] heavens above [Bb] more than just a [Eb] passing glance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or [F] dance

REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]

REPEAT VERSE 2:

REPEAT CHORUS: [x3]

OUTRO:
[Gm] [Eb] // [Bb] [F] // [Gm] [Eb] // [F] : [x2]
[Bb open]
