[Chorus]
If you got a chance, take it
Take it while you got a chance
If you got a dream, chase it
'Cause dream won't chase you back
If you're gonna love somebody
Hold 'em as long and as strong and as close as you can
Until you can't (Yeah)

[Segue]
I wanna thank everybody in country radio that played this song
But most importantly, because of you, because of you, this was my first multi-platinum, multi-week number one on the Billboard country music charts
If you know the words to "'Til you can't," I want you to sing it with me tonight, you ready?

[Verse 1]
You can tell your old man you'll do some large-mouth fishin' another time
You just got too much on your plate to bait and cast a line
You can always put a rain check in his hand
'Til you can't (Yeah)

[Verse 2]
You can keep puttin' off forever with that girl who's heart you hold
Swearin' that you'll ask somеday further down the road
You can always put a diamond on her hand
'Til you can't
(Arе you ready? Let's go)
[Chorus]
If you got a chance, take it
Take it while you got a chance
If you got a dream, chase it
'Cause a dream won't chase you back
If you're gonna love somebody
Hold 'em as long and as strong and as close as you can
Until you can't (You sound good)

[Verse 3]
There's a box of greasy parts sittin' in the trunk of that sixty-five
Still waitin' on you and your grandad to bring it back to life
You can always get around to fixin' up that Pontiac
'Til you can't

[Chorus]
If you got a chance, take it
Take it while you got a chance
If you got a dream, chase it
'Cause a dream won't chase you back
If you're gonna love somebody
Hold 'em as long and as strong and as close as you can
Until you can't

[Bridge]
So take that phone call from your mama
And just talk away
'Cause you'll never know how bad you wanna
'Til you can't some day
Don't wait on tomorrow 'cause tomorrow may not show
Just say your sorry's, your I love you's
'Cause, man, you never know
[Chorus]
If you got a chance, take it
Take it while you got a chance
If you got a dream, chase it
'Cause a dream won't chase you back
If you're gonna love somebody
Hold 'em as long and as strong and as close as you can
Until you can't
Yeah, if you got a chance, take it (Take it)
Take it while you got a chance
If you got a dream, chase it
'Cause a dream won't chase you back
If you're gonna love somebody
Hold 'em as long and as strong and as close as you can
Until you can't (Yeah)
Until you can't

[Outro]
Yeah
Take it
