[VERSE I]
BbM9/D           C(9)/E
 I guess you're okay
    Bb(9)                     C
You seem to feel better these days
                      Dm
I've known you for so long
               Bb            Am7          Dm
I've seen your brightness go from blue to grey
[VERSE II]
BbM9/D           C(9)/E
 You know that's true
        Bb(9)                     C
You can shake your head but I can prove
                              Dm
I've seen things through your eyes
              Bb         Am7         Dm
You think you win but in the end you lose
[CHORUS]
               Bb
And there's no second guess
           F
We take no second bets
        C7                        F
Chances are we're a long way from happiness

Don't cover up the road to love
                F
With words that can't express
            C            A7/C#    Dm
The truth implies you're high and dry
             Bb            C6
And you're a long way from happiness

Looking out for you all the time
                     Dm
I'll put my faith in you
              Bb            Am7             Dm
And steer you clear of love that leaves you blind

We take no second bets
