Chances chords by The Strokes

Chords with lyrics

Difficulty: Novice

Capo 6th fret

Chords relative to the capo

Intro riff is broken into two parts on the G+G string.
I haven't been quite able to nail it but if you muck around between fret 5 and 2
for the first part, and fret 4 then open for the second I'm sure you'll work it out
(frets relative to the capo)

Intro - C majorC A minorAm E minorEm G+G (X 2)

Verse 1

C majorC          A minorAm
I waited for ya, I waited for ya

E minorEm            G+G
I waited on ya, But, now I don't

C majorC          A minorAm
You didn't see it, I didn't see it

E minorEm           G+G
I didn't see it, but now, oh, i do

I play your game
I play your game
(now)
I play your game
I play your game

Chorus

     FF      G+G
I take my Chances alone,

C majorC           A minorAm
Get on your horse and be gone,

    FF          G+G
I will not wait up for you anymore,

       C majorC          A minorAm
So you can ask me if something is wrong

FF     G+G
Will you go?

C majorC      A minorAm
I don't know anymore

Verse 2 - Same progression as Verse 1 - C majorC A minorAm E minorEm G+G

When the night isn't ready for you
It's a feeling I know that dogs you
They invited a stewardess, too
Now they want you to see it

Here's to days he decides he's got time
And he claims that it's not a surprise
When he finds out the truth's on his side

Chorus (This time with one more bar)

     FF      G+G
I take my Chances alone,

C majorC           A minorAm
Get on your horse and be gone,

    FF          G+G
I will not wait up for you anymore,

       C majorC          A minorAm
So you can ask me if something is wrong

FF     G+G
Will you go?

C majorC      A minorAm
I don't know anymore

FF        G+G
I don't believe anyone

C majorC         A minorAm
As they crawl out of my way

Bridge/Outro

G+G G+G A minorAm A minorAm

Waiting for the night
Leaving night by night
You can see me travel
We could be in trouble every night
We're having a new life
