Chances Are

He's my grandpa's old Gibson
And a guy of no importance
A shot of whiskey sitting on the bar
Yeah, I used to give a damn
I used to try real hard
But I'll give in tonight, chances are

One foot on the narrow way
And one foot on the ledge
And sifting through the devil's lies
From what the good book says
And if I'm goin' anywhere
I'll probably go too far
And probably away from you, chances are
Chances are

There's a lonely corner waiting
And two seats left for playing
And I'll tell him everything he wants to hear
And I'm not worth the lovers making
I'm better at the breakin'
A girl like me knows how to disappear

And one foot on the narrow way
And one foot on the ledge
And sifting through the devil's lies
From what the good book says
And if I'm goin' anywhere
I'll probably go too far
And probably away from you, chances are
Chances are

Hold me like I mean it
And say it 'til you believe it
And we'll see if we can fill an empty heart
And I won't tell you what the chances are

And one foot on the narrow way
And one foot on the ledge
And sifting through the devil's lies
From what the good book says
And if I'm goin' any where
I'll probably go too far
Probably away from you, chances are
Chances are
