(Verse 1)
You can (C)tell your old man you'll do some largemouth fishing another time
You got (Am)too much on your plate to bait and cast a line
You can (F)always put a rain check in his hand
Till you can't, (C) till you can�ft (G)
You can (C)keep putting off forever with that girl who's heart you hold
(Am)Swearing that you'll ask some day further down the road
You can (F)always put a diamond on her hand
Till you can't, (C) till you can�ft (G)

(Chorus)
If you got a (C)chance, take it, take it while you got a chance
If you got a (Am)dream, chase it, 'cause a dream won't chase you back
If you're gonna (F)love somebody, hold 'em as long
And as (F)strong and as close as you can, till you can't, (C) till you can�ft (G)

(Verse 2)
There's a (C)box of greasy parts sitting in the trunk of that �e65
Still (Am)waiting on you and your grandpop to bring it back to life
You can (F)always get around to fixing up that old Pontiac
Till you can't, (C) till you can�ft (G)

(Chorus)
If you got a (C)chance, take it, take it while you got a chance
If you got a (Am)dream, chase it, 'cause a dream won't chase you back
If you're gonna (F)love somebody, hold 'em as long and as strong and as close as you can
Till you can't, (C) till you can�ft (G)

(Bridge) *Spoken*
(C) You know I awoke one Sunday morning all alone with this song stuck in my (Am)head
And in that moment (Am) something or someone spoke to (F)me
(F) They said there was still a verse that needed to be written for this song
(C) And to get up, (G) and write it down - - -

(Verse 3)
(C) / / / (G) / There�fs a book that�fs sittin in your house somewhere that could use some dusting off
There�fs a (Am)man who died for all our sins a hanging from the cross
You can (F)give life to Jesus and he�fll give you a second chance
Till you can�ft, (C) till you can�ft (G)

(Chorus)
If you got a chance, (C) take it, take it while you got a chance
If you got a dream, (Am) chase it, 'cause a dream won't chase you back
If you're gonna (F)love somebody, hold 'em as long and as strong and as close as you can
Till you can't, (C) till you can�ft (G)

(Chorus)
If you got a (C)chance, take it, take it while you got a chance
If you got a (Am)dream, chase it, 'cause a dream won't chase you back
If you're gonna (F)love somebody, hold 'em as long and as strong and as close as you can
Till you can't, (C) till you can�ft (G) - - -
