Standing Outside the Fire - Garth Brooks (Yates/Brooks)

----------------------------------------

A Asus4 A Asus4

A

We call them cool

Asus4 A

Those hearts that have no scars to show

C#m D

The ones that never do let go

Bm E E7 E6 E

And risk the tables being turned

We call them fools

Who have to dance within the flame

Who chance the sorrow and the shame

That always comes with getting burned

F#m E

But you got to be tough

D A

When consumed by desire

F#m E D E A Asus4 A Asus4

Cause its not enough just to stand outside the fire

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

F#m E

They're so hell bent on giving

D A

Walking a wire

F#m E D E A

Convinced it's not living when you stand outside the fire

D E A

Standing outside the fire

D E A

Standing outside the fire

F#m E A D

Life is not tried, it is merely survived

Bm E A

If you're standing outside the fire

D

There's this love that is burning

C#m

Deep in my soul

Bm A

Constantly yearning to get out of control

D

Wanting to fly

C#m

Higher and higher

Bm C#m D E NC

I can't abide standing outside... the fire

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