Take A Chance On Me

Words & Music:

ABBA

 

CHORUS:

A

If you change your mind, I'm the first in line.

                                        E

Honey, I'm still free, take a chance on me.

E

If you need me, let me know, gonna be around.

                                        A

If you've got no place to go, if you're feeling down.

If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown.

Honey, I'm still free, take a chance on me.

Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie.

If you put me to the test, if you let me try.

       E              A                                       E

Take a chance on me. (That's all I ask of you, honey.) Take a chance on me.

 

Bm                                      A

We can go dancing, we can go walking as long as we're together.

Listen to some music, maybe just talking get to know you better.

                     F#m

'Cause you know I've got so much that I wanna do.

D                                     F#m

When I dream I'm alone with you, it's magic.

F#m

You want me to leave it there, afraid of a love affair.

      E

But I think you know - that I can't let go.

 

Take a chance on me. (Come on, give me a break, will you?)  Take a chance on me.

 

Oh you can take your time baby, I'm in no hurry, know I'm gonna get you.

You don't wanna hurt me, baby don't worry, I ain't gonna let you.

 

Let me tell you now, my love is strong enough to last when things are rough,

It's magic.

You say that I waste my time, but I can't get you off my mind.

No I can't let go; 'cause I love you so.

 

Gonna do my very best, baby can't you see?

Gotta put me to the test, take a chance on me.

Take a chance, take a chance, take a chance on me.

 

Ba-ba-ba-ba ba, ba-ba-ba-ba ba.  Honey I'm still free, take a chance on me

Gonna do my very best, baby can't you see?

Gotta put me to the test, take a chance on me.  [repeat and out]
