TUNING: Standard 

G5 - E5 - C5 (2x) 

           G5
Id rather stand on the edge of a cliff 
    E5
And hang my toes over a bit, 
         C5
And then jump when they dare me, 
D5                          G5
Even if it scares me and I get hurt. 
           G5
Id rather build my wings on the way down, 
      E5
Do my best not to fall to the ground 
         C5
and then laugh at my mistakes 
     D5                        G5
cause theyre only lessons Ill learn 


Chorus: 
           C5                D5
Id rather burn with desire deep in my soul, 
    G5                      E5
And love like a fire thats out of control, 
    C5                   D5 
and laugh and dance and fall 
               G5    D5 
and chance and kiss  
           C5
Id rather live my whole life 
       D5
with a sense of abandon, 
G5
Squeeze every drop out, 
   E5
no matter what happens. 
    C5                   D5
And not wonder what Ive missed 
           E5  D5 G5
Id rather             risk. 


       G5
Well I guess I could just play it safe 
    E5           D5              C5     G5
and forget about love, hope and faith, 
          C5 
with my eye on the shore line, 
D5                        G5
keeping my boat tied and staying home, 
             G5
ohhh but Ill never discover new land 
   E5
by keeping my feet on the sand 
      C5
No Id rather set sail 
        D5                   G5
and get carried away by the storm. 


Chorus: 
           C5                D5
Id rather burn with desire deep in my soul, 
    G5                      E5
And love like a fire thats out of control, 
    C5                   D5 
and laugh and dance and fall 
               G5    D5 
and chance and kiss  
           C5
Id rather live my whole life 
       D5
with a sense of abandon, 
G5
Squeeze every drop out, 
   E5
no matter what happens. 
    C5                   D5
And not wonder what Ive missed 
           E5  D5 G5        E5  D5 G5
Id rather             risk. 
                     E5  D5 G5 
I would rather risk  



           C5                D5
Id rather burn with desire deep in my soul, 
    G5                      E5
And love like a fire thats out of control,
   C5 
Id live my whole life 
       D5
with a sense of abandon, 
G5
Squeeze every drop out, 
   E5
no matter what happens. 
    C5                   D5  
And not wonder what Ive missed 
E5   D5      G5  
Oh I just cant resist, 
    D5         G5
The chance to risk 


     G5         D5        C5         D5         E5       C5          D5
