Intro:  Fm  C#  G#  (2 times)
 
 
Verse 1:
       Fm    C#         G#
If you only once would let me,
 Fm   C#       G#
Only just one time,
         Fm    C#        G#
Then be happy with the consequence,
         Fm            C#      G#
With whatever's gonna happen tonight.
 Fm          C#        G#
Don't think we're not serious,
 Fm       C#   G#
When's it ever not?
     Fm     C#      G#
The love we make is give and it's take,
  Fm       C#    G#
A game to play along.
 
 
Fm         C# A#m7
All I can say,
Fm           C#
I shouldn't say...
 
 
Chorus:
               G#
Can we take a ride?
            D#
Get out of this place
          Fm            C# A#m7
While we still have time.
 
 
Fm     C#     G#
  Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh.
Fm     C#     G#
  Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh.
 
 
Verse 2:
All the best DJs are saving
Their slowest song for last.
When the dance is through,
It's me and you,
Come on, would it really be so bad?
The things we think might be the same,
But I won't fight for more.
It's just not me to wear it on my sleeve,
Count on that for sure.
 
All I can say,
I shouldn't say...
 
 
Chorus:
               G#
Can we take a ride?
            D#
Get out of this place 
           Fm            C#
While we still have time.
                  G#
You wanna take a ride?
            D#
Get out of this place
          Fm
While we still have time,
          C#
Yeah, we still have time.
 
 
Fm     C#        G#
  Oh oh, oh ohhh...
Fm     C#        G#
  Oh oh, oh ohhh...
Fm     C#        G#
  Oh oh, oh ohhh...
Fm     C#        G#
  Oh oh, oh ohhh...
 
 
Verse 3:
Can't say I was never wrong,
But some blame rests on you.
Work and play, they're never okay
To mix the way we do.
 
All I can say,
I shouldn't say...
 
 
Chorus:
               G#
Can we take a ride?
            D#
Get out of this place 
           Fm            C#
While we still have time.
                    G#
You want to take a ride?
            D#
Get out of this place
           Fm
While we still have time,
    C#
We still have time.
 
 
Fm      C#      G#
  Oh ohh, oh ohh, oh oh ohh,
Fm      C#      G#
  Oh ohh, oh ohh.

yeah... i discovered the magic of capo like one year ago, hahaha

not really a correction but kind of, it's just a suggestion as to how you play the various parts of the song. the intro, verse and post chorus (the oh ohh, oh ohh, oh oh ohh thing) are all played with arpeggios of the chords he has down. just play them from the low E and pick down. Easy, and awesome sounding.

sounds super. if you're lazy like me, you can just capo 1 and play Em, C, G and it's still in key with the song but no barre chords :).
