Lyrics

CHANCES ARE GOOD

SHE GAVE ME MORE CHANCES
THAN ANY MAN DESERVES
AND ALL I TOOK
WAS ADVANTAGE OF HER
ONE BY ONE
I WATCHED ?EM ALL SLIP AWAY
I?VE HAD MY CHANCES
THAT?S ALL I CAN SAY

SHE WAS STANDIN? AT THE FRONT DOOR
WITH HER SUITCASE IN HAND
LOOKIN? RIGHT THROUGH ME
TRYIN? TO UNDERSTAND
BUT REASONS DON?T MATTER
WHEN LOVE TAKES A FALL
NOW THE CHANCES ARE GOOD
THERE?S NO CHANCE AT ALL

THE COULD?VES AND WOULD?VES
THEY DON?T MATTER MUCH NOW
I SHOULD?VE DONE BETTER
BUT I DID NOT KNOW HOW
THINGS WOULD BE DIFFERENT
IF I?D JUST CHANGED MY WAYS
I?VE HAD MY CHANCES
THAT?S ALL I CAN SAY

OH I LOOK AROUND ME
AND ALL I SEE
ARE CONSTANT REMINDERS
OF THE WAY IT USED TO BE
I FIND MYSELF WISHIN?
THERE WAS ONLY SOME WAY
I?VE HAD MY CHANCES
THAT?S ALL I CAN SAY

SHE WAS STANDIN? AT THE FRONT DOOR
WITH HER SUITCASE IN HAND
LOOKIN? RIGHT THROUGH ME
TRYIN? TO UNDERSTAND
BUT REASONS DON?T MATTER
WHEN LOVE TAKES A FALL
NOW THE CHANCES ARE GOOD
THERE?S NO CHANCE AT ALL
CHANCES ARE GOOD
THERE?S NO CHANCE AT ALL
