   D
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder, 
              Bm
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger, 
         G                       
May you never take one single breath for granted, 
        A
God forbid love ever leaves you empty handed, 


             G                A                       D
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean, 
         G               A               D
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens, 
         Em                  F#m               G
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance, 
                                          A
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance. 


            Bm  G  D  A
I hope you dance.... 
           Bm  G  A
I hope you dance, 
            D
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance, 
      Bm
Never settle for the path of least resistance 
        G
Living might mean taking chances but they're worth taking, 
        A
Loving might be a mistake but it's worth making 


       G                 A                D       
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter 
                G              A         D
When you come close to selling out reconsider 
          Em            F#m               G
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance, 
                                              A
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance... 

 
            Bm  G  D  A
I hope you dance.... 
            Bm  G  A
I hope you dance,
           Bm  G  D  A
I hope you dance.... 
            Bm  G  A
I hope you dance,

Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along, 

Tell me who wants to look back on their years 

and wonder where those years have gone.
