Intro: A D A


A               
We call them cool
A               D                     A
Those hearts that have no scars to show
A               D            A
The ones that never do let go
A               D              E D A E  
And risk the tables being turned

                A
We call them fools
A               D               A
Who have to dance within the flames
A               D               A
Who chance the sorrow and the shame
A               D                   E D A E
That always comes with getting burned

        A             
But you got to be tough
        E             A
When consumed by desire
        A
Cause its not enough
        D        E        A
just to stand outside the fire

                  A
We call them strong
A               D               A
Those who can face this world alone
A              D              A 
Who seem to get by on their own
A               D                E D A E
Those who will never taint the foe

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

                A
There's some help and forgiving
E          A
walking a wire,
                E
cause it's not living if you
D       E          A
Stand outside the fire

D         E             A
Standing outside the fire
D         E             A
Standing outside the fire
E               D
Life is not thrivin',
A               D
your merely survivin'
     D        E         A
if your standing outside the fire

A
There's this love that is burning
E           A
deep in my soul
                E
constantly yearning to
D                A
get out of control
A
wanting to fly,
E          A
higher and higher
            E
I can't abide
D         E             A
Standing outside the fire.

D         E             A
Standing outside the fire
D         E             A
Standing outside the fire
E               D
Life is not thrivin',
A               D
your merely survivin'
     D        E         A
if your standing outside the fire

D         E             A
Standing outside the fire
D         E             A
Standing outside the fire
E               D
Life is not thrivin',
A               D
your merely survivin'
     D        E         A
if your standing outside the fire
