Here's my grandpa's old Gibson And a girl 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 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 There's a lonely corner waiting To seats left for playing I'll tell her everything she wants to hear I'm not worse love this making I'm better at the breakin' A guy like me knows how to disappear One foot on the narrow way , and one foot on the ledge 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 Hold me like I mean it Say 'til you believe it And we'll see if we can fill an empty heart But I won't tell you what the chances are One foot on the narrow way , and one foot on the ledge 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
