Here’s my grandpa’s old Gibson

And a girl of no importance

But I’ll give in tonight, chances are

[Chorus]

One foot on the narrow waye-

C G

And one foot on the ledge

Sifting through the devil’s lies

C G

From what the good book says

Em D

If I’m goin’ any where

I’ll probably go too far

Em D

Probably away from you

C G

Chances are, chances are

[Verse 2]

There’s a lonely corner waiting

To seats left for playing

I’ll tell her everything she wants to hear

Well im not worth the love thats making

I’m better at the breakin’

C G

A guy like me knows how to disappear

[Chorus]

One foot on the narrow waye- , and one foot on the ledge

Probably away from you

Chances are, chances are

Hold me like I mean it

Say ’til you believe it

And we’ll see if we can fill an empty heart

Em G

But I won’t tell you what the chances are

[Chorus]

One foot on the narrow waye- , and one foot on the ledge

D C G

Sifting through the devil’s lies, from what the good book says

If I’m goin’ any where

I’ll probably go too far

Probably away from you

Chances are, chances are
