[Verse]

G                            C             G
 I was climbing a mountain, asleep in the moonlight
      G                          D        D7
 The ghost of my Grandpa came to me in a dream
         G                               C            G
 As the stars hung above us, he started singing this chorus
    G                          D           G
He laughed loud as heaven and said this to me

[Chorus]

G
Take a few chances
      C        G
A few worthy romances
   G                        D          D7
Go swimming in the ocean on New Year's day
       G
Don't listen to the critics
      C            G
Stand up and bear witness
    G                         D             G
Go slay all the dragons that stand in your way

[Verse 2]

G                                              C                 G
 We stayed up and talked until the sunrise, of war and love and sorrow
    G                                        D            D7
He said, "Stop spending all your money on forgiveness of sins.
G                                     C                G
Today is all you're promised, don't trouble with tomorrow."
    G                              D           G
He faded into the forest proudly singing this hymn

[Chorus 2]

G
Take a few chances
      C        G
A few worthy romances
   G                        D          D7
Go swimming in the ocean on New Year's day
       G
Don't listen to the critics
      C            G
Stand up and bear witness
    G                         D             G
Go slay all the dragons that stand in your way

[Verse 3]

G                         C            G
 I woke up in a fever, surrounded by lightning
        G                                D         D7
All my windows were open, and I let the rain flood in
     G                              C        G
The past felt like present, with a future uncertain
       G                    D           G
But I sang like a sparrow, lost in the wind

[Chorus 3]

G
Take a few chances
      C        G
A few worthy romances
   G                        D          D7
Go swimming in the ocean on New Year's day
       G
Don't listen to the critics
      C            G
Stand up and bear witness
    G                         D             G
Go slay all the dragons that stand in your way
    G                         D             G
Go slay all the dragons that stand in your way
    G                         D             C               G
Go slay all the dragons that stand in your waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
