4-56-66-5
We're talking away
5    5   5    4
I don't know what
-6-6-6-5    4  -6  -67 -77
I'm to say I'll say it anyway
-6 5     5 4-4  5  -5  6  -5   4
Today's another day to find you
-5-5   -5   6
Shying away
5   5    5  5   4  -4   5 -5  5-4
I'll be coming for your love, OK?

CHORUS:
4   6  -6   4    6  5
Take on me, take me on
4    6   -6
I'll be gone
-5 -5 -5 -5  6
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

CHORUS

Oh the things that you say
Is it live or
Just to 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

This song is from the mideighties and the Norwegian group A-ha won prizes for the popvideo.
