Artist/Band: Roberts Julie Tabs
Song: The Chance Tab
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
