F#m                                          Dmaj7
I knew when I met you something was going to happen
   F#m                                          B
My life was off-balanced nothing had been going right
         E                 D               Bm           F#m 
You said what's a lonesome cowboy like you doing in the city
       Bm                 D                    E   D  Dbm Bm 
I said I don't know but I guess I'll find out tonight


A
Still taking chances taking candy from strangers
D
Speeding up on curves ignoring the dangers
A               D A
Feel like a fool learning new dances
   E              D  Ddm Bm           
It keeps me on my toes


A
Still taking chances ain't scared of winning
D
Swinging for the bleachers in the 9th inning
A                       E                   D    
Still taking chances before chances take me away
 Bm                      F#m   Dmaj7
Before chances take me away


F#m                             
Maybe I should have thought it over
                               Dmaj7
When you said will you join me later
F#m                                B
I said honey I don't know if it's right
E                                                 F#m      
But when you turned and walked down the street I followed
   B                          D                E     D  Ddm Bm
I felt like I was following a truckload of, of dynamite

Been three years now since we got together
           Bm 
You took a chance on me
        D                           E   D
