Taking My Chances - Richie Kotzen, Adrian Smith

You know me, I know you

You got a plan — yeah, what else is new

You got your money, high intellect

But just remember that you can’t buy respect

They say that I’m just another burnout

And I’m wasting time

Keep barking orders, scream and shout

I’m gonna let you know

I’m taking my chances

I can’t go no further down

I live in the mansion

Of the lost and found

I wanna feel alive, why can’t I

Just bring this whole thing down

I’m taking my chances

Of the ride, of the ride

I’ve been high, I’ve been low

Got every reason to let you know

You got degrees, I got the street

Ain’t nobody who could rescue me

They want my back against the wall

But I’m leaving dust

I don’t believe in them at all

I’m taking my chances

I can’t go no further down

I live in the mansion

Of the lost and found

I wanna feel alive, why can’t I

Just bring this whole thing down

I’m taking my chances

Of the ride, of the ride

I’m taking my chances

I can’t go no further down

I live in the mansion

Of the lost and found

I wanna feel alive, why can’t I

Just bring this whole thing down

I’m taking my chances

Of the ride, of the ride
