Intro: Drumbeat
Why don't you open up your eyes?
(A)
These are more than passing glances
Why don't you say what's on your mind?
(A)
Cause I'm taking all the chances
Ref:
If I'm not everything you wanted, oh
If I'm not everything you need
Chorus:
Then you can walk right out the door (you
can walk right out the door)
And you can walk right out on me (you can walk right out on me)
But you're never gonna see just how good it's
gonna be until you gimme a chance
Gimme a chance, oh
What do you see in all these guys?
(A)
Don't you know they're just pretending?
Somehow you always seem surprised
(A)
That it's not a happy ending
(Don't you want a happy ending?)
Ref:
If I'm not everything you wanted, oh
If I'm not everything you need
Chorus:
Then you can walk right out the door (you
can walk right out the door)
And you can walk right out on me (you can walk right out on me)
But you're never gonna see just how good it's
gonna be until you gimme a chance
Then you can walk right out the door (you
can walk right out the door)
Then you can say goodbye (you can say goodbye)
But I know you gonna stay we'll be happy everyday
Just gimme a chance,
Gimme a chance, oh
Bridge:
All I want to do is spend my life with you
All I want from you is a chance so I can prove my love to you
Just gimme a chance, gimme a chance
Chorus:
Then you can walk right out the door (you
can walk right out the door)
And you can walk right out on me (you can walk right out on me)
But you're never gonna see just how good it's
gonna be until you gimme a chance
Then you can walk right out the door (you
can walk right out the door)
Then you can say goodbye (you can say goodbye)
But I know you gonna stay we'll be happy everyday
Just gimme a chance,
Gimme a chance, oh
