[Verse 1]
G C G There’s 5 balls left in this 8 ball pool game Em F#/D G 'Cause some guy was too drunk to stay C G I grabbed that stick off that table Em F#/D G And I begged you to play C G If I sink the last one in the corner E F#/D G I get your number, but you just laughed C G I missed the shot and you walked off Em F#/D C I closed my tab and that was that
[Chorus]
G 'Cause I ain't a safe bet F#/D And I ain't the one you wanna make Em And even though the odds aren’t in my favor C I'm the chance I wish you'd take G F#/D And I’ll risk it all, win lose or draw Em F#/D C Playing hearts is just high stakes G But I ain't a safe bet
[Verse 2]
G C G I’ll learn all your favorite songs Em F#/D G And I’ll sing them to you if you want C G Treaty Oak to Ol Keith Whitiey Em F#/D G Even Florida Georgia if you sing along C G Days got short and our talks got long Em F#/D G Winter came and I’m glad it did C G I held your hand and walked you home Em F#/D C And I finally stole a kiss
[Chorus]
G And this ain't a safe bet F#/D But it might be the one you wanna make Em And even though the odds aren’t in my favor C I'm the chance I wish you'd take G F#/D And we'll risk it all, win lose or draw Em F#/D C Playing hearts is just high stakes G And this ain't a safe bet
[Bridge]
C B A G B C When I walked into that bar with this guitar then months ago C B A G B C Had no idea I’d meet this girl to change my world and help me grow C B A G B C Take my hurt my broke my lonely battered beaten guarded soul C B A G B G Find something real and be scared to feel in ways I ain’t felt before
[Chorus]
G 'Cause this ain't a safe bet F#/D But it's the best one we can make Em Who gives a damn about those odds C It's the chance we're gonna take G F#/D And we'll risk it all, win lose or draw Em F#/D C Playing hearts is such high stakes G And this ain't a safe bet
