The Chance

INTRO: Bm  A  G 2x


VERSE 1:

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


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

VERSE 2:

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


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


VERSE 3:

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

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