He never gave me a chance to explain why vs He never give a chance to explain why

The correct phrase is 'he never gave me a chance to explain why.' The verb 'gave' should be in the past tense to match the rest of the sentence. 'Give' is the base form of the verb and is not appropriate in this context.
