[Intro]
A#add9 F Dm7 C x2
[Verse 1]
C A#add9
Struck by lightning,
F
Sounds pretty frightening,
Dm7 C
But you know the chances are so small.
A#add9
Stuck by a bee sting,
F
Nothing but a bee thing,
Dm7 C
Better chance you're gonna buy it at the mall.
A#add9
But it's a twenty-three or four-to-one,
F Dm7 C
That you can fall in love by the end of this song.
A#add9
So get up, get up,
F
Tell the bookie "put a bet on",
Dm7 C
Not a damn thing will go wrong.
[Chorus]
A#add9 F Dm7
The odds are that we will probably be,
C
Alright,
A#add9 F
Odds are we gonna be alright,
Dm7 C
Odds are we gonna be alright tonight,
A#add9 F Dm7
The odds are that we will probably be,
C
Alright,
A#add9 F
Odds are we gonna be alright,
Dm7 C A#add9
Odds are we gonna be alright for another night.
[Verse 2]
C A#add9
Hit by the A-train,
F
Crashed in an airplane,
Dm7 C
I wouldn't recommend either one,
A#add9
Killed by a great white,
F
Or a meteorite,
Dm7 C
I guess there ain't no way to go that's fun,
A#add9
But somewhere in the world,
F Dm7 C
Someone is gonna fall in love by the end of this song.
A#add9
So get up, get up,
F
No, it's never gonna let up,
Dm7 C
So you might as well sing along.
[Chorus]
A#add9 F Dm7
The odds are that we will probably be,
C
Alright,
A#add9 F
Odds are we gonna be alright,
Dm7 C
Odds are we gonna be alright tonight,
A#add9 F Dm7
The odds are that we will probably be,
C
Alright,
A#add9 F
Odds are we gonna be alright,
Dm7 C A#add9
Odds are we gonna be alright for another night.
[Bridge]
Gm7 F/A A#
Sure things go wrong,
C Gm7
But I'll take my chances,
F/A A#
Odds are long,
C A#add9 F Dm7 C
So why not plaa - - aay?
