Good Times, Bad Brews V1.1.1.1.2.2.2 Edit V1

Smile in Trouble

till this world ends...

Chances is a heartfelt country ballad about life's winding roads, missed opportunities, and the power of second chances. With reflective lyrics and a gentle, emotional melody, the song tells a story of lessons learned through hardship, love’s unwavering strength, and the importance of seizing the moments we’re given. It reminds listeners that while time keeps moving, doors open and close, and dreams can slip away, there's always another chance—if we’re brave enough to take it.

Chances

Water Instead of Wine

Break or a Break Up (Marvin Shelton)

You grabbed your keys, took some things
In such a rush you forgot your ring
Oh, and then your truck
left me standing in the dust
You never cried, never yelled
Didn’t say to just go to Hell…
…So I gotta know, how’s this all gonna go?

CHORUS
Is there a chance we can make up?
Cuz' I don’t want to wake up
Alone in a bed, without you by my side
Are you just out with friends?
Trying on being single for pretends
Girl I swear, this don't feel right
So, I’m asking you, are we out of love?
Ooooo, Is this a break or a breakup?

Verse 2
Word got out around town
No one’s talking, they just turn around
won’t look me in the eyes
They know something bout you and I
I don’t know where to begin
Can we start over? Is this where we end?
…I just wanna know,(I just wanna know) 
how’s this all gonna go?

CHORUS
Is there a chance we can make up?
Cuz' I don’t want to wake up
Alone in a bed, without you by my side
Are you just out with friends?
Trying on being single for pretends
Girl I swear, this don't feel right
So, I’m asking you, are we out of love?
Ooooo, Is this a break or a breakup?

CHORUS 2
Is there a chance we can make up?
Cuz' I don’t want to wake up
Alone in a bed, I need you by my side
I promise I’ll love you
This is something we’ll get through
We’ve only got one chance to get this right
So, I’m asking you, are we out of love?
Ooooo, Is this a break or a breakup?
Is this a break...or a breakup?

Break or a Break up
