She's a waitress
He was a watchtower guard
But this was something he just didn't see
Coming his way
She had him by his love
And the circumstance of a man
Waiting for his chance
To dance to life's song
Chances are

A few months later
Later on after the wedding
You'll find him home late at night
Just sitting and waiting
All his friends had told him
Don't you remember, don't you recall
For a dollar you get four plays
Forever it's on

Chances are

Maybe I'm better off dead
Maybe I'm better off
