Intro: Cadd9, G, Em7, D verse 1 (D) Cadd9 Struck by lightning, G Sounds pretty frightening, Em7 D But you know the chances are so small. Cadd9 Stuck by a bee sting, G Nothing but a bee thing, Em7 D Better chance you're gonna buy it at the mall. Cadd9 But it's a twenty-three or four-to-one, G Em7 D That you can fall in love by the end of this song. Cadd9 So get up, get up, G Tell the bookie "put a bet on", Em7 D Not a damn thing will go wrong. Chorus Cadd9 G Em7 The odds are that we will probably be, D Alright, Cadd9 G Odds are we gonna be alright, Em7 D Odds are we gonna be alright tonight, Cadd9 G Em7 The odds are that we will probably be, D Alright, Cadd9 G Odds are we gonna be alright, Em7 D (Cadd9) Odds are we gonna be alright for another night. verse 2 Hit by the A-train, Crashed in an airplane, I wouldn't recommend either one, Killed by a great white, Or a meteorite, I guess there ain't no way to go that's fun, But somewhere in the world, Someone is gonna fall in love by the end of this song. So get up, get up, No, it's never gonna let up, So you might as well sing along. Chorus Bridge Cadd9 G Em7 Sure things go wrong, D Cadd9 But I'll take my chances, G Em7 Odds are long, D Cadd9, G, Em7, D So why not plaaaaaaaaaaaay? Instrumental Cadd9, G, Em7, D verse 3 Struck by lightning, Sounds pretty frightening, But you know the chances are so small, Hit by the A-train, Crashed in an airplane, Better chance you're gonna buy it at the mall, But it's a twenty-three or four-to-one, That you can fall in love by the end of this song, So get up, get up, No, I'm never gonna let up, So you might as well sing along. Chorus (x2) Outro Cadd9, G, Em7, D
