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
