Lyrics

Stand up in a clear, blue morn ing un til you see what can be.

A lone in a cold day dawn ing, are you still free?

Can you be?

When some (Gmaj9)old to (Em7)mor row finds you, when some (Gmaj9)sad old dream re minds you how the end less road un winds you: while you see a chance, take it.

(Bm)Find ro mance, fake it, be cause it’s all

on you.

(F)Don’t you (Eb)know by now (F)no one (Bb)gives you an y thing.

And don’t (F)you won (Eb)der how you keep on (C)mov (D)ing

one more day,

your (D)way?

When there’s (Gmaj9)no one (Em7)left to leave you, e ven (Gmaj9)you don’t quite be lieve you.

That’s when noth ing can de ceive you.

While you see a chance, take it.

(Bm)Find ro mance, fake it, be cause it’s all

on you.

While you (D)see a chance, take it.

(G)Find ro mance.

While you (D)see a chance, take it.

(G)Find ro mance.

While you (G)Find ro mance.
