Ten Chances

Em G Em G I Only had One Minute Left on my calling card Em G D I was half way around the world and it was raining really hard Em G Em G I only had a couple of aspirin and a half a can of beer Em G D So I swallowed it down for courage but it was still pretty hard to hear Em G Em G Cause I only had Three words That I wanted to tell you Em G D But it would be easier if you were here and I could smell you C D Words are fallin' out I know G G/F# Em They drift they pass they melt like snow C D G G/F# Em And I know I may be a flake, I scrape my knees and make mistakes C D G G/F# Em And I may lose but mostly win, Sometimes I get soaked in sin C D Em But I fall right back into your arms again Em G Em G So I ordered four Pints of Guiness and I set them on a trunk Em G D I had a long conversaaion with a hopeless drunk Em G Em G And I only had five tickets and six new friends Em G D One of them Had a hissy fit and drove off in her Mercedes Benz Em G Em G So we played seven card stud, and I had a royal flush Em G D And I took out your picture and I started to blush Em G Em G Cause I only had eight lives, most cats got nine Em G D So I skipped out on bungee jumping, Just this time (just this time) Em G Em G Because I only had ten chances, to say I love you
