[F] Keep a fire burning [Bb]in your eye
[F] Pay attention to the [Bb]open sky
[F] You never know what [Bb]will be coming down [F] [C]
[F] I don't remember losing [Bb]track of you
[F] You were always dancing in and [Bb]out of view
[F] I must've thought you'd [Bb]always be around [F] [C]
[Dm] Always keeping things [Bb]real by playing the clown [F]
Now you're [C]nowhere to be found
[F] [Bb] [F] [C]
[F] I don't know what happens when [Bb]people die
[F] Can't seem to grasp it as hard [Bb]as I try
[Bb] It's like a [F]song I can hear playing [Bb]right in my ear
That I can't [F]sing - I can't help [C]listening
[F] And I can't help feeling stupid [Bb]standing 'round
[F] Crying as they [Bb]ease you down
[F] 'Cause I know that you'd [Bb]rather we were dancing [F]
[C] Dancing our sorrow away [Dm]
[Bb] Right on dancing
[F] No matter what fat[C]e chooses to play
There's nothing you can do about it [F]anyway
Just [Bb]do the steps that [F]you've been shown
By [Bb]everyone you've [F]ever known [C]
[Dm] Until the dance become[F7]s your very own
[Bb] No matter how [C]close to yours
[Dm] Another's steps have grown [Bb]
In the [F]end there is one [C]dance you'll do alone
[F] [Bb] [F] [C]
Keep a fire for the human race
Let your prayers go drifting into space
You never know what will be coming down
Perhaps a better world is drawing near
And just as easily it could all disappear
Along with whatever meaning you might have found
[Dm] Don't let the [Bb]uncertainty turn you [F]around
The world keeps turning around and around
Go [C]on and make a joyful sound [F]
In[Bb]to a dancer [F]you have grown
From a [Bb]seed somebody [F]else has thrown [C]
[Dm] Go on ahead and throw[F7] some seeds of your own [Bb]
[Bb] And somewhere between[C] the time you arrive [Dm]
And the time you go [Bb]
May lie the [F]reason you were alive [C]
But you'll never know
[F] [Bb] [F] [C] [F] [C] [F]
