"Second Chance" is a song by American rock band 38 Special from their eighth studio album, Rock & Roll Strategy (1988). Written by keyboardist Max Carl, guitarist Jeff Carlisi, and Cal Curtis, it was released as the album's second single, becoming the band's highest-charting song in the United States, peaking at No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100. This song, of which Carl was the lead vocalist, showcases a stylistic departure from their signature Southern rock sound.
