verse 1
G
When I was 14, I was fallin' fast
C
For a blue-eyed girl in my homeroom class
G
Tryin' to find the courage to ask her out
C
Was like tryin' to oil from a water spout
Bridge 1
D
What you can say that I can't say
C
I never did ask and she moved away
D
But I learned something from my blue-eyed girl
C D G
Sink or swim, you gotta give it a whirl
Chorus
G D G
Life's a dance, you learn as you go
D G
Sometimes you lead, sometimes you follow
C D
Don't worry bout what you don't know
C D G
Life's a dance, you learn as you go
Verse 2
The longer I live the more I believe
You do have to give if you wanna receive
There's a time to listen, a time to talk
and you might have to crawl even after you walk
Bridge 2
Had sure things blow up in my face
Seen the long shot win the race
Been knocked down by the slammin' door
Picked myself up and came back for more
Chorus
{Then the song kicks up -->
either capo at 5 or
G becomes A
C --> D
D --> E

Life's a dance, Take a Chance on Love

You learn as you go
