Email:rockthemike@aol.com
Intro/Riff:
Acoustic versions have the riff coming back down the scale at some points in the song:
Verse:
If I was bold enough
I would follow you forever but
D A (intro riff)
Darling, please, rescue me, take me out
Some may say it's my fate
Am I just in time or am I late?
If you can, understand, then
Chorus:
Bm D G (Quick transition from Bm on 2nd fret to D on 5th fret, charging
chords with the lyrics)
Take me out
I don't start, I don't end, I don't change on my own
Take me out
I don't lose, I don't win, I don't do well alone (alone, alone, alone)
Love is what you make it, take my heart and break it
Take me out, I dont want to stay home
(Intro/Riff)
Verse:
You make me dread, you make me sweat
But can you make love mean something instead
Something real, make me feel, then
Chorus:
Bm D G (Quick transition from Bm on 2nd fret to D on 5th fret, charging
chords with the lyrics)
Take me out
I don't start, I don't end, I don't change on my own
Take me out
I don't lose, I don't win, I don't do well alone (alone, alone, alone)
Love is what you make it, take my heart and break it
Take me out, I dont want to stay home
Bridge: (carry the Bm from the end of the chorus into the bridge)
I don't want to stay here
I don't want to live half my life and disappear
So if you want to take chances, take a chance on me
Take me out
Take me out
Chorus:
Bm D G (Quick transition from Bm on 2nd fret to D on 5th fret, charging
chords with the lyrics)
Take me out
I don't start, I don't end, I don't change on my own
Take me out
I don't lose, I don't win, I don't do well alone (alone, alone, alone)
Love is what you make it, take my heart and break it
Take me out, I dont want to stay home
(Intro/Riff) Play this over the "I don't want to stay home"chanting
