Standing Outside the Fire - Garth Brooks (Yates/Brooks)
----------------------------------------
capo 2nd fret


G (320003@1)   C9 (x3233x@1)   G (320003@1)   C9 (x3233x@1)             GWe (320003@1)call them cool
                  C9 (x3233x@1)             GThose (320003@1)hearts that have no scars to show
              Bm (x24432@1)         CThe (x32010@1)ones that never do let go
             Am (x02210@1)         D (xx0232@1)    D2 (x43141@2)   D4 (xx0233@1)   DAnd (xx0232@1)risk the tables being turned

(same chord progression)
We call them fools
Who have to dance within the flame
Who chance the sorrow and the shame
That always comes with getting burned

        Em7       DBut (xx0232@1)you got to be tough
     C (x32010@1)           GWhen (320003@1)consumed by desire
      Em7       D (xx0232@1)          C (x32010@1)      D (xx0232@1)      G (320003@1)   C9 (x3233x@1)   G (320003@1)   C9Cause (x3233x@1)its not enough just to stand outside the fire

(same chords as before)
We call them strong
Those who can face this world alone
Who seem to get by on their own
Those who will never take the fall

We call them weak
Who are unable to resist
The slightest chance love might exist
And for that forsake it all

           Em7          DThey're (xx0232@1)so hell bent on giving
C (x32010@1)       GWalking (320003@1)a wire
   Em7             D (xx0232@1)             C (x32010@1)      D (xx0232@1)      GConvinced (320003@1)it's not living when you stand outside the fire

C (x32010@1)         D (xx0232@1)      GStanding (320003@1)outside the fire
C (x32010@1)         D (xx0232@1)      GStanding (320003@1)outside the fire
Em7         D (xx0232@1)          G (320003@1)       CLife (x32010@1)is not tried, it is merely survived
          Am (x02210@1)        D (xx0232@1)      GIf (320003@1)you're standing outside the fire

             CThere's (x32010@1)this love that is burning
BmDeep (x24432@1)in my soul
Am (x02210@1)                       GConstantly (320003@1)yearning to get out of control
CWanting (x32010@1)to fly
BmHigher (x24432@1)and higher
Am (x02210@1)     Bm (x24432@1)C (x32010@1)      D (xx0232@1)           NC
I can't abide standing outside...    the fire

Nice percussion solo (or just play G) then back to the chorus
