G C D
Johnny gave Susan a wedding band
D G
Now she wears it on her left hand
C G
I'm doing the best I can
D G
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
C
A right hand man can be your lover
G C G
Carry the load when the wind blows cold
C
He can be replaced by another
D C G
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
