Chris Stapleton's St Jude's Charity Live Acoustic Performance [Intro] C Am F C [Verse 1]
   C
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder

             Am
You get your fill to eat, but always keep that hunger

          F
May you never take one single breath for granted

       G
God forbid love ever leave you empty-handed

             F                         G               C
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean

          F                  G             C
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens

        Dm                   C                 F
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance

                        F                      G
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
[Chorus]
             Am   F C
I hope you dance

             Am   F G
I hope you dance
[Verse 2]
           C
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance

        Am
Never settle for the path of least resistance

         F
Living might mean taking chances, but they're worth taking

        G
Loving might be a mistake, but it's worth making

       F                   G               C
Don't let some hell-bent heart leave you bitter

                F               G         C
When you come close to selling out reconsider

            Dm          C                          F
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance

                        F                      G
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
[Chorus]
             Am   F  C
I hope you dance        (Time - is a wheel in constant motion - always rolling us along)

             Am   F  G
I hope you dance       (Tell me who wants to look back on their years And wonder where those years have gone)
[Bridge]
             F                         G                C
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean

          F              G                C
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens

        Dm                    Am               F
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance

                       F                       G
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
[Chorus]
  Am    F  C
Dance        

             Am   F  G
I hope you dance
