G5                   C5       D5 
Johnny gave Susan a wedding band 
                    D5        G5 
Now she wears it on her left hand 
              C5      G5 
I'm doing the best I can  
                                  D5          G5 
To forget she used to call me her right hand man 
 
Susan always knew I'm not marrying kind 

But she said she would love me for all time 

Said a wedding band just sparkles and shines 

Be my right hand man and that'll be fine 
 

             C5 
A right hand man can be your lover 
          G5             C5          G5 
Carry the load when the wind blows cold 
          C5 
He can be replaced by another 
      D5    C5       G5 
Who's carrying the gold  
 
 
Susan made me think our love was real 
There are times I believe her still 
But Johnny walked in right out of left field 
Put a right hand man in a left hand deal 
 
Repeat CHORUS 
 
They say don't let your right hand know what your left hand?s doin' 
Susan kept me in the dark for a long, long time 
I had no idea that love's foundation was turning into ruin 
Cause being a right hand man was a dream of mine 
 
Repeat CHORUS
