Take Or Leave It
View chords used in this chart
A# D# G F x2
A#
Push off it's time to set sail into the east
G
You've been stagnant for a long long time it seems
Paper trails that you have left along the way
A#
Cry out for something more than where you've been
Underneath the moon and stars
G
Lights a path to light your way
F
Too many darkened nights behind
C
Into the sunrise burning bright
Chorus Part 1:
F
Now there's an angel on my shoulder telling me
A#
Forget, forgive, let live and live
C
Let be, what will and what the hell?
F A#
And there's the devil on my back just saying what's the problem?
Chorus Part 2:
D#
I don't know what I'm doing here
I never saw this coming
G F
I do believe the end is near
A#
You can take or leave it
D#
I didn't plan on anything
I figured I was dreaming
G F
Another dose of my own pill
A#
You can take or leave it
so leave or take is all I hear you say
G
give me a chance here to explain
and beg forgiveness I don't so well
A#
But please release me from this hell
and it gets so cold at night
G
I can't remember when I've slept right
F
Breaking out in sweats I drown
C
I gasp for air but choke somehow
(Full Chorus)
A#
No more words
No more blame
G
Actions louder than you think
No more lies
Or sympathy
A#
Trust in something set it free
No more loss
No more Pain
G
Believe in something once again
F
Believe in something once again
(Chorus Part 2)
