Here's my grandpa's old Gibson
And a girl of no importance
A shot of whiskey sitting on the bar
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 going in where
I'll probably go too far
Probably away from you
Chances are chances are

There's a lonely corner waiting
The deuce is left for playing
I'll tell her everything she wants to hear

Well, I've gotten worse at this love we're makin'
I'm better at the breaking
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 going in 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 going in where
I'll probably go too far
Probably away from you
Chances are chances are
