Paul Brandt - Risk

G - Em - C (2x)

I’d rather (G) stand on the edge of a cliff
And (Em) hang my toes over a bit,
And then (C) jump when they dare me,
(D) Even if it scares me and I (G) get hurt.
I’d rather (G) build my wings on the way down,
Do my (Em) best not to fall to the ground
and than (C) laugh at my mistakes
‘cause (D) they're only lessons I’ll (G) learn


Chorus:
I’d rather (C) burn with desire (D) deep in my soul,
And (G) love like a fire that’s (Em) out of control, 
and (C) laugh and dance and (D) fall
and chance and (G) kiss (D)
I’d rather (C) live my whole life
with a (D) sense of abandon,
(G) Squeeze every drop out,
no (Em) matter what happens.
And (C) not wonder what I've (D) missed
I’d rather (Em)(D/F#)(G) risk.


Well I (G) guess I could just play it safe
and (Em) forget about (D) love, hope and (C) faith, (G)
with my (C) eye on the shore line,
(D) keeping my boat tied and (G) staying home,
ohhh but I’ll (G) never discover new land
by (Em) keeping my feet on the sand
No I’d (C) rather set sail
and get (D) carried away by the (G) storm.

Chorus:
I’d rather (C) burn with desire (D) deep in my soul,
And (G) love like a fire that’s (Em) out of control, 
and (C) laugh and dance and (D) fall
and chance and (G) kiss (D)
I’d rather (C) live my whole life
with a (D) sense of abandon,
(G) Squeeze every drop out,
no (Em) matter what happens.
And (C) not wonder what I've (D) missed
I’d rather (Em)(D/F#)(G) risk (Em)(D/F#)(G)
I would rather risk (Em)(D/F#)(G)

I’d rather (C) burn with desire (D) deep in my soul,
And (G) love like a fire that’s (Em) out of control, 
I’d (C) live my whole life
with a (D) sense of abandon,
(G) Squeeze every drop out,
no (Em) matter what happens.
And (C) not wonder what I've (D) missed
(Em) Oh I (D/F#) just can’t (G) resist,
The (D) chance to (G) risk

Ohhh (G) live, and (D) love and (C) laugh and (D) dance and (Em) fall and (C) chance and (D) kiss

I’d rather risk (G)(D)(C)(D)(Em)(C)(D)
I’d rather risk (G)(D)(C)(D)(Em)(C)(D)
I’d rather risk (G)(D)(C)(D)(Em)(C)(D)
I’d rather risk (Em)(D/F#)(G)
