The Chance

**Capo 4**
INTRO: F#m  E   D 2x

VERSE 1:

A                      D
I found a book that my mama kept
A                       D
Filled with secrets she hid
A         E         F#m   
And in a dusty old attic, one 
    E         D     E
mornin' I read
A               D
About a woman I never met
F#m     E                D
Who had dreams just like mine
                  E                
With every page I turned, the words
      D     E
 came alive


Chorus:
             A                     
Wish I could roll out of town like 
  D
a runaway train
     F#m     E              D
I'll do as I dare, let them call me 
insane
            A         E           
I'll never sit on the sidelines of
  F#m       A           D     E
 life, I'll dance every dance
                  F#m E  D   F#m 
If I just had the chance
 E  D

VERSE 2:

A                   D
A tear fell on that faded page
A                      D
Cause this was somebody else
A       E      F#m        
Not the Mama I knew who never 
    A          D       E
thought of herself
A                        D
But the times, they were different 
then
F#m       E               D
And lines just didn't get crossed
                         A         
And these words that she wrote, 
              D     E
they somehow got lost


Chorus:
             A                     
Wish I could roll out of town like 
  D
a runaway train
     F#m     E              D
I'll do as I dare, let them call me 
insane
            A         E            
I'll never sit on the sidelines of 
F#m        A           D     E
life, I'll dance every dance
                  F#m  E   D   
If I just had the chance
F#m  E   D   G   D  C  E



VERSE 3:

A                   D
The chance that she never had
A                       D
Is now the gift that is mine
A       E            F#m   
And out here on this road, I'm 
           A           D    E
makin' up for lost time
A             D
Yeah, I am my mother's child
F#m   E             D
And tonight in this car
                      A            
I got her words in my suitcase and 
                 D     E
her dreams in my heart

Chorus:
     A                       D
As I roll out of town like a runaway
 train
     F#m     E              D
I'll do as I dare, let them call me 
insane
            A         E           
I'll never sit on the sidelines of
  F#m       A           D     E
 life, I'll dance every dance
                       F#m E  D
While I still have the chance
            A         E           
I'll never sit on the sidelines of
  F#m       A           D     E
 life, I'll dance every dance
                              F#m  
While I still have the chance
E   D
