Verse 1
E
A man of great ambition
he pushed himself to be
A man upon a mission with
great riches to achieve
A
All his friends admired him,
And every word they trusted
E
and believed.
D
And the odds seemed
A
E
forever in his favor.
He made a sound investment
in his own abilities
Healthy clientele and some
A
E
committed employees
A
Well regarded in the town,
E
money to be made, and cash be found.
D
A
E
And the odds seem forever in his favor.
Verse 2
A
Sooner or later the man
D
E
is bound to fall!
A
D
One fine day Sir, sooner or later
A
E
the empires are bound to fall!
D
A
E
The wind blows forever without waver

Because ? dawn
D
But the odds were not en
A
E
deavored
Forever in your favor!
Verse 3
E
He bought a grander house on a
D
E
more expensive street
Quite a price to pay for
a place to rest his feet
A
Felt the water rise before he knew
E
it wasn't all back again
D
A
E
Still he thought he had the odds in his favor.
He had to disappoint you, the
banker did not yield
The string of repossessions, his
wife's expensive heels
A
But sitting down upon the curb he felt
D
A
E
a sudden feeling of relief
D
And he knew the odds were
A
E
far from in his favor.
A
Sooner or later

D
E
the man is bound to fall!

One fine day Sir, sooner or later

D
But the odds were not en

E
A
deavored
E
Forever in your favor!
Verse 5
E
You're expensive pockets are empty
D
E
and you're feeling insecure
I think you may resent it, in fact,
D
E
I'm pretty sure
A
Is being wealthy really all that far from
E
being poor, I'm not so sure!
D
A
And the odds are not forever in your favur!
