Intro -x2-: C  G  Em7  D 
 

          C    
Struck by lightning,
                     G
Sounds pretty frightening,
                     Em7         D
But you know the chances are so small.
           C    
Stuck by a bee sting,
                  G
Nothing but a bee thing,
                           Em7            D
Better chance you're gonna buy it at the mall.
           C                       
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.
   C    
So get up, get up,
                G
Tell the bookie "put a bet on",
           Em7           D
Not a damn thing will go wrong.
 

    C             G            Em7
The odds are that we will probably be,
D
Alright,
C                    G
Odds are we gonna be alright,
     Em7               D
Odds are we gonna be alright tonight,
    C             G            Em7
The odds are that we will probably be,
D
Alright,
C                    G
Odds are we gonna be alright,
     Em7              D                        -C-
Odds are we gonna be alright for another night.
 

          C    
Hit by the a-train,
                     G
Crashed in an airplane,
                     Em7         D
I wouldn't recommend either one,
           C    
Killed by a great white,
                     G
Or a meteorite,
                     Em7         D
I guess there ain't no way to go that's fun,
           C                       
But somewhere in the world,
     G                    Em7                D
Someone is gonna fall in love by the end of this song.
           C                       
So get up, get up,
                G
No, it's never gonna let up,
           Em7           D
So you might as well sing along.
 

    C             G            Em7
The odds are that we will probably be,
D
Alright,
C                    G
Odds are we gonna be alright,
     Em7               D
Odds are we gonna be alright tonight,
    C             G            Em7
The odds are that we will probably be,
D
Alright,
C                    G
Odds are we gonna be alright,
     Em7              D                        -C-
Odds are we gonna be alright for another night.
 

C       G         Em7
 Sure things go wrong,
    D              C    
But I'll take my chances,
 G       Em7
Odds are long,
   D       C      G  Em7  D
So why not plaaaaaaaaaaaay?
