They say it ain't meant to be

A city girl and a country boy like me

Well I'll take my chances

They say I'll get a couple weeks of riding high

Then a sudden change of heart goodbye

But I'll take my chances

Yeah I'll take my chances

Think the payoff's worth the risk

But if the dice don't roll my way

And a broken heart is all I get

I'll take my chances and go

Long with my heart and my soul

Retrace this old dead end road

And find what I've been chasing

Somewhere between now and then

I might make the wrong turn again

Girl I'm a big boy you know

I'll take my chances and go

The way you smile and shake your head

I don't buy what everybody says

Yeah I like my chances

But then again on the other hand

There's somethin bout your eyes that say you can

Do a man some damage

Yeah I'll take the gamble

You won't leave me high and dry

But if I feel your leaving coming

You won't have to say goodbye

I'll take my chances and go

Long with my heart and my soul

Retrace this old dead end road

And find what I've been chasing

Somewhere between now and then

I might make the wrong turn again

Girl I'm a big boy you know

I'll take my chances and go

Hey go let's give us a roll of the dice

Hope they turn up what we like

And if it turns out they don't

I'll take my chances and go

Yeah
