Take a Chance on Me is a song by the Swedish band ABBA, originally released in 1977 as the B-side to the single The Name of the Game. The song was later included on the album ABBA: The Album. The inspiration for the song came when Björn Ulvaeus was running, and the tck-a-ch rhythm formed in his mind. He came home and built the foundation of what would become one of ABBAs most famous songs.
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've got no place to go, if 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
If you put me to the test, if you let me try Take a chance on me Take a chance on me We can go dancing, we can go walking As long as we're together Listen to some music, maybe just talking Get to know you better '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 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've got no place to go, if 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
If you put me to the test, if you let me try Take a chance on me Take a chance on me Oh you can take your time baby, I'm in no hurry Know I'm gonna get you You don't wanna hurt me, baby don't worry I ain't gonna let you 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 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've got no place to go, if 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
