                C
If we burn our wings
                         D
Flying too close to the sun
                  Am
If the moment of glory
                      D
Is over before its begun
                 C
If the dream is won
                      Am
Though everything is lost
                  G
We will pay the price,
                           Em
But we will not count the cost
                  G
We will pay the price,
                           Em
But we will not count the cost

When the dust has cleared
And victory denied
A summit too lofty
River a little too wide
If we keep our pride
Though paradise is lost
We will pay the price,
But we will not count the cost
We will pay the price,
But we will not count the cost

                   C
And if the music stops
                              D
Theres only the sound of the rain
                  Am
All the hope and glory
                      D
All the sacrifice in vain
               C
And if love remains
                      Am
Though everything is lost
                  G
We will pay the price,
                           Em
But we will not count the cost
                  G
We will pay the price,
                           Em
But we will not count the cost

And if the love remains,
though everything is lost
We will pay the price
(We will pay the price)
But we will not count the cost
(We will not count the cost)
And if the love remains
(If the love remains)
Though everything is lost
(Though everything is lost)
We will pay the price
(We will pay the price)
But we will not count the cost
(We will not count the cost)
And if the love remains
