Take a Chance on Me (Live) Lyrics by ABBA

ABBA Live

1986

[Chorus: Agnetha & Frida, Benny & Björn]
Take a chance, take a chance, take a-take a chance-chance
Take a chance, take a chance, take a-take a chance-chance
Take a chance, take a chance, take a-take a chance-chance
Take a chance
If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Take a chance, take a-take a chance-chance, take a chance, take a chance
Honey, I’m still free - take a chance on me
Take a-take a chance-chance, take a chance, take a chance
Take a-take a chance-chance, take a chance, take a chance
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
Take a-take a chance-chance, take a chance, take a chance
Take a-take a chance-chance, take a chance, take a chance
If you got no place to go when you're feeling down
Take a-take a chance-chance, take a chance, take a chance, take a chance
Take a chance, take a-take a chance-chance, take a chance, take a chance
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey, I’m still free - take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try

[Post-Chorus 1: Frida, Agnetha]
Take a chance on me
That's all I ask of you honey
Take a chance on me

[Verse 1: Agnetha & Frida, Benny & Björn]
We can go dancing, we can go walking
As long as we're together
As long as we're together
Listen to some music, maybe just talking
Get to know you better
Get to know you better

[Pre-Chorus 1: Agnetha, Agnetha & Frida]
'Cause you know I've got
So much that I wanna do, when I dream I'm alone with you
It’s magic
You want me to leave it there, afraid of a love affair
But I think you know
That I can’t let go

[Chorus: Agnetha & Frida]
If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey, I’m still free - take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you got no place to go when you're feeling down
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey, I'm still free - take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain’t no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try

[Post-Chorus 2: Frida, Agnetha]
Take a chance on me
Come on, give me a break, will you?
Take a chance on me

[Verse 2: Agnetha & Frida, Benny & Björn]
Oh, you can take your time, baby, I'm in no hurry
Know I'm gonna get ya
Know I'm gonna get ya
You don't wanna hurt me, baby don't worry
I ain't gonna let you
I ain't gonna let ya

[Pre-Chorus 2: Agnetha, Agnetha & Frida]
Let me tell you now
My love is strong enough to last when things are rough
It's magic
You say that I waste my time, but I can't get you off my mind
No, I can't let go
'Cause I love you so

[Chorus: Agnetha & Frida]
If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey, I'm still free - take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you got no place to go when you're feeling down
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey, I'm still free - take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try
Take a chance, take a chance, take a chance on me

[Chorus - Variation: Agnetha & Frida]
Ba-ba ba-ba ba, ba-ba ba-ba baa
Honey, I'm still free - take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you got no place to go when you're feeling down
Take a chance, take a chance, take a chance on me
Ba-ba ba-ba ba, ba-ba ba-ba baa-ba-ba
Honey, I'm still free - take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try

[Outro: Agnetha, Agnetha & Frida]
You say that I waste my time
But I can't get you off my mind
It's magic
