Chorus:
B
If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
F#
Honey I'm still free, take a chance on me
If you need me let me know, gonna be around
B
If you got no place to go when you're feelin' down
B
If you're all alone, when the pretty birds have flown
F#
Honey I'm still free, take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best, and it ain't no lie
B
If you put me to the test, if you let me try
F#
Take a chance on me (that's all I ask of you, honey) - 1st time
(c'mon, give me a break, man) - 2nd time
F#
Take a chance on me
C#m
We can go dancing, we can go walking
B
As long as we're together
C#m
Listen to some music, maybe just slow and
B
Get to know me better
Ab
Cause you know I've got, so much that I wanna do
E Ab
When I dream I'm alone with you, it's magic
Ab E
You want to leave it there, afraid of a love affair
F#
But I think you know, that I can't let go
(Chorus)
C#m
Oh you can take your chance baby, I'm in no hurry
B
Ooh I'm gonna get you
C#m
You're the one that hurt me, baby don't worry
B
I ain't gonna let you
Ab
My love is strong enough
E Ab
To last when things are rough, it's magic
Ab E
You say that I waste my time, but I can't get you off my mind
F#
Oh I can't let go, cause I love you so
(Chorus)
Here replace the first line with: "Pa pa pa pa pam pa pa pa pa pam."
(In other words, listen to the song)
