Chances Are - Garret Hedlund (Country Strong)

Song from the movie "Country Strong" played by Garret Hedlund

This 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, and what the good Book says.
If I’m going anywhere, I’ll probably go too far.
And probably away from you, chances are.
Chances are.

Well, there’s a lonely corner waiting; two sets left for playing.
And I’ll tell her everything she wants to hear.
Well I’m not worth the love that’s making, 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, and what the good Book says.
If I’m going anywhere, I’ll probably go too far.
And probably away from you, chances are.
Chances are.

Hold you like I mean it. Say it ‘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, and what the good Book says.
If I’m going anywhere, I’ll probably go too far.
And probably away from you, chances are.
Chances are.
