Text size
 
Capo on 4th fret
              
 
 
Am            D 
We're talking away 
G 
I don't know what 
C               Am     D 
I'm to say I'll say it anyway 
G               C 
Today's another day to find you 
Am     D 
Shying away 
Em                          C 
I'll be coming for your love, OK? 
G    D   Em  (C)    
Take on me,  
G D  Em (C) 
 
Take me on 
G   D   Em 
I'll be gone 
G   D   Em 
In a day or two 
 
 
So needless to say 
I'm odds and ends 
But that's me stumbling away 
Slowly learning that life is OK. 
Say after me 
It's no better to be safe than sorry 
 
Take on me, take me on 
I'll be gone 
In a day or two 
 
 
Am   D     G   C (2x) 
La di di da da.... 
 
Oh the things that you say 
Is it life or 
Just a play my worries away 
You're all the things I've got to 
remember 
You're shying away 
I'll be coming for you anyway 
 
Take on me, take me on 
I'll be gone 
In a day or two
