Raise the Roof Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Raise the roof, that I might see the stars
To gain wisdom,
to see things for what they are
[G]Please, I [D]need proof

[Verse 2]
[D]Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut your [G]mouth
[D]Raise the roof

[Interlude 1]
[D][A][Asus4][G][D]

[Verse 3]
[D]Trapped in the snare with too
much dreaming to bear
Fearful and frantic, hopeless and a romantic
In[G]spired but tired,
I run this wide-open course
course
Like the sag[D]ging spirit

[Verse 4]
of an older horse
[A]Dance till you fall
Love till you die
[D]Shut your [G]mouth
[D]Raise the roof

[Verse 5]
[A]Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut your [G]mouth
[D]Raise the roof

[Interlude 2]
[D]

[Verse 6]
[D]Peel back this backdrop,
like the lids from my eyes
Put you in plain view, let me visualize
[G]Touch me again in my dreams till I feel
[D]Touch me again till I wake and it's real

[Verse 7]
[A]Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut your [G]mouth
[D]Raise the roof

[Verse 8]
[A]Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut your [G]mouth
[D]Raise the roof

[Interlude 3]
[D][A][G][D]

[Verse 9]
[G]The wisest advice to me
that I didn't reach
Was [D]to lock up the heart,
but keep the key within reach
[G]Touch me again in my dreams till I feel
[D]Touch me again till I wake and it's real

[Verse 10]
[A]Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut your [G]mouth
[D]Raise the roof

[Verse 11]
[A]Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut [G]your mouth
[D]Raise the roof

[Verse 12]
[A]Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut [G]your mouth
[D]Raise the roof

[Verse 13]
[A]Dance till you fall
Love till you [G]die[D]

[Verse 14]
Raise the roof
[A]Dance till you fall
Love till you [G]die
[D]Raise the roof
