Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]A man of great ambition
he pushed himself to be
A man upon a mission with
great riches to achieve
All [C]his friends admired him,
And every word they trusted
[G]and believed.
And [F]the odds seemed
[C]forever in [G]his favor.
He made a sound investment
in his own abilities
Healthy clientele and some
commit[C]ted employ[G]ees
Well [C]regarded in the town,
money to be made, and cash [G]be found.
And [F]the odds [C]seem forever in [G]his favor.

[Verse 2]
[C]Sooner or later the man
is bound [F]to fall![G]
[C]One fine day Sir, [F]sooner or later
the empires are [C]bound to [G]fall!
The [F]wind blows [C]forever without [G]waver
Be[F]cause [C]? d[G]awn
But the [F]odds were not en
[C]deavored[G]
Forever in your favor!

[Verse 3]
He [G]bought a grander house on a
more ex[F]pensive [G]street
Quite a price to pay for
a place to rest his feet
[C]Felt the water rise before he knew
it wasn't all back [G]again
Still he [F]thought he had [C]the odds in his [G]favor.
He had to disappoint you, the
banker did not yield
The string of repossessions, his
wife's expensive heels
But [C]sitting down upon the curb he felt
a [F]sudden [C]feeling of [G]relief
And he [F]knew the odds were
[C]far from in his [G]favor.
[C]Sooner or later

[Verse 4]
the man is bound [F]to [G]fall!
[C]One fine day Sir, [F]sooner or later
the [C]empires [G]are bound to fall!
'Cause the [F]wind blows
[C]forever without [G]waver
[F]? can't crack [C]stone[G]
But the [F]odds were not en
[C]deavored[G][C]
[G]Forever in your favor!

[Verse 5]
[G]
You're expensive pockets are empty
and you're feeling [F]insec[G]ure
I think you may resent it, in fact,
I'm [F]pretty [G]sure
Is [C]being wealthy really all that far from
being poor, I'm not so [G]sure!
And the [F]odds [C]are not forever in your favur!
[G]
