   Am              E             A

1.      You remind me I live in a shell,

                           Dm                    F                          G  - G7 - G - G7

    safe from the past and doin' okay, but not very well.

C                           G       - Gm                  A7

    No jolts, no surprises,          no crisis arises,

                          Dm                            F                         Dm          G

    my life goes along as it should, it's all very nice, but not very good.

                                  

  E          Am                     Dm

And I'm ready to take a chance again,

   G                     Em             E            Am

ready to put my love on the line with you.

           C                                F

Been livin' with nothing for show for it,

       Dm                                       G

you get what you get when you go for it,

               C                        F                         E

and I'm ready to take a chance again with you.

 

   Am                    E              A                      - A7

2.       When she left me, in all my despair,

                     Dm                                 F            Dm                  E

     I just held on, my hopes were all gone, then I found you there.

                                  

  E          Am                     Dm

And I'm ready to take a chance again,

   G                     Em             E            Am

ready to put my love on the line with you.

           C                                F

Been livin' with nothing for show for it,

       Dm                                       G

you get what you get when you go for it,

              Am                     Dm

And I'm ready to take a chance again,

   G                     Em             E           Am

ready to put my love on the line with you.

          C                                 F

Been livin' with nothing for show for it,

       Dm                                       G

you get what you get when you go for it,

               C                        F                      

and I'm ready to take a chance, again

               C                        F         Dm           E

and I'm ready to take a chance again with you.

 

             Am   - Dm - G - Em - E         - Am - Dm - G - Em - E

+  With you.
