Chorus:
                    B
If you change your mind,

I'm the first in line,
                  B
Honey I'm still free,
                  F#
Take a chance on me,

Gonna be around

If you let me try.

You'd get to know me better,
             B

  So much that I wanna do,
E
  When I dream I'm alone with you,
      G#m  E F#
It's magic.

  Afraid of a love affair,

That I can't let go.
