i take my chances (live - madison, wi) - mary chapin carpenter lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i took a walk in the rain one day
on the wrong side of the track
i stood on the rail till i saw that train
just to see how my heart would react
now some people say that you shouldn’t tempt fate
and for them i cannot disagree
but i never learned nothing from playing it safe
i say fate should not tempt me

[chorus 1]
i take my chances
i don’t mind working without a net
i take my chances
i take my chances every chance i get

[verse 2]
i sat alone in the dark one night
tuning in by remote
i found a preacher who spoke of the light
but there was brimstone in his throat
and he’d show me the way according to him
in return for my personal check
i flipped my channel back to cnn
and i threw away my cigarettes

[chorus 2]
and i take my chances
oh, forgiveness doesn’t come with a debt
i take my chances
i take my chances every chance i get

[piano solo]

[bridge]
i’ve crossed lines of words and wire
and both have cut me deep
i’ve been frozen out and i’ve been on fire
and the tears are mine to weep
but i can cry until i laugh
or laugh until i cry
so cut the deck right in half
i’ll play from either side

[chorus 3]
i take my chances
i pay my dollar and i place my bet
i take my chances
i take my chances every chance i get
i take my chances
yeah, i don’t cling to remorse or regret
i take my chances
i take my chances every chance i get

[outro]
i’ll take my chances
i’ll take my chances
i’ll take my chances
