D                    Bm 
I often wonder how exciting life would be
        D                    G         D
if only I would seize the opportunity
                       Bm
to break free of all conventions and conform
        D            G             D
but a worried face soon comes over me

Refreng:

      G
But I am
D          Bm         G
only once not twice 
         D      G
at the mercy of dice

but I am
D          Bm         G
only once not twice
         D      G
at the mercy of dice

D                              Bm
We went to bed and turned the stereo on low
            D                 G             D
heard the timber creek and windows rattle gently
                               Bm
although we smiled, there were no words left to say
            D               G               D
a soothing draft was all I had for company

But I am
only once not twice
at the mercy of dice
but I am
only once not twice
at the mercy of dice
