7    7 7 -6  -6
Here I go a-gain
-6  6   -6    -9   -6   -6  6   6
I hear those trum-pets blow a-gain
6   6  6  -5  -5
All a-glow a-gain
5    -5 5  -4    -7  7
Tak-ing a chance on love
7    7   7  -6  -6
Here I slide a-gain
-6  6  -6  -9   -6   -6  6  6
A-bout to take that ride a-gain

Star-ry eyed a-gain

Tak-ing a chance on love

5   -7*    8   -9     8 -7*  -9  -7
I thought the cards were a frame-up
8  8  7   -7*   -7
I nev-er would try
5    7* -7*  8  -7*  7*  8    7
But now I'm tak-ing the game up
-7* -7  -7* -6   7*  -5*  7
And the ace of hearts is high

7       7   7    -6  -6
Things are mend-ing now
-6 6 -6  -9  -6   -6   6   6
I see a rain-bow bend-ing now
6      -7   8  10  10  10  -9  -9
We'll have our hap-py end-ing now
9    -9 8   -8   -9  8
Tak-ing a chance on love

[Instrumental break]

Here I slip again
About to take that trip again
Got my grip again
Taking a chance on love
Now I prove again
That I can make life move again
In the groove again
Taking a chance on love
I walk around with a horseshoe
In clover I lie
And brother rabbit of course you
Better kiss your foot good-bye
On the ball again
I'm riding for a fall again
I'm gonna give my all again
Taking a chance on love
Taking a chance on love
