Lee Ann Womack - Chances Are
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO:    C    G  C  
N.C.
Chances are I took the wrong turn
Every time I had a turn to Ftake
And I Gguess I broke my own heart
Every chance I had a heart to Cbreak
And it seems I spent my whole life
Wishing on the C7same unlucky FstarDm  
As I G7watch you 'cross the barroom
I Gwonder what my chances CareG  
Well, I Cknow you've been around
And you've seen what you needed to Fsee
And at Gnight when you're dreaming
You're probably not dreaming 'Cbout me
Oh, it's safe to say I've stumbled
But I've C7managed to make it through Fthis farDm  
As I take G7one step and then another
I Gwonder what my chances Care
BRIDGE:
DmI have watched the world go by
FHand in hand and wondered why CI'm still so alone
Could AmI lay down my foolish prideD  
And maybe finally find my heart a Ghome
The Cband has started playing
A simple song I used to Fknow
I Gtake your hand and walk you out
Dance to the rhythm waCy down low
Every heart has a story
But C7mine just has few more FscarsDm  
But they could G7heal if you would hold me
And Gtell me what my chances Care
But Amthey would G7heal if you would hold me
And Gtell me what my Fchances areC

Chances are I took the wrong turn

Every time I had a turn to take

And I guess I broke my own heart

Every chance I had a heart to break

And it seems I spent my whole life

C7 F Dm

Wishing on the same unlucky star

As I watch you 'cross the barroom

G C G

I wonder what my chances are

Well, I know you've been around

And you've seen what you needed to see

And at night when you're dreaming

You're probably not dreaming 'bout me

But I've managed to make it through this far

As I take one step and then another

BRIDGE:

I have watched the world go by

Hand in hand and wondered why I'm still so alone

Am D

Could I lay down my foolish pride

And maybe finally find my heart a home

The band has started playing

A simple song I used to know

I take your hand and walk you out

Dance to the rhythm way down low

Every heart has a story

But mine just has few more scars

But they could heal if you would hold me

G C

And tell me what my chances are

Am G7

But they would heal if you would hold me

G F C

And tell me what my chances are
