Take On Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Talkin' away
I don't know what I'm to say
I'll say it anyway
Today's another day to find you
Shyin' away
I'll be comin' for your love, okay?

[Chorus]
Take on me
Take me on
I'll be gone
In a day or two

[Verse 2]
Needless to say
I'm odds and ends but I'll-
I'll be stumbling away
Slowly learnin' that life is okay
Say after me
It's no better to be safe than sorry

[Chorus]
Take on me
Take me on
I'll be gone
In a day or two
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Things that you say
Is it life or just to play my worries away?
You're all the things I've got to remember
You're shyin' away
I'll be comin' for you anyway

[Chorus]
Take on me
Take me on
I'll be gone
In a day or two

[Outro]
In a day or two
Take on me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Spoilers:
This scene is found by going to the music store early in the The Last of Us 2. Throughout the game, the guitar is used as a way for the player and Ellie to memorialise Joel – it’s also likely that he taught her how to play it.
