C                                          F
When we first met on the rooftop of that hotel
            C                           G     G7
Everyone around us could see, we got on well
                  C                                     F
So we took the elevator straight up to the forty second floor
        G                                    F              C
When we kissed in your doorway, it's like we never kissed before

[Verse 2]
               C                              F
I was in love again, and I knew that you were too
         C                                   G    G7
We spent every night together, nothing was taboo
                 C                                 F
And early in the morning with the sunlight in your hair
       G                                 F            C
I knew we'd stick together, you were the answer to my prayers

[Chorus]
          G       F                       C
How could I be so wrong (so wrong) for so long (so long)
          G       F                       C
How could I be so wrong (so wrong) for so long (so long)
          G                     F                       C
How could I (how could I) be so wrong (so wrong) for so long (so long)

[Verse 3]
                C                           F
All the time we spent together so close and true
                C                       G      G7
Living for each other together thru the blues
                  C                            F
Two stars crossed lovers beneath the Tennessee moon
        G                      F               C
We were near as we could be to Johnny Cash and June

[Chorus]
          G       F                       C
How could I be so wrong (so wrong) for so long (so long)
          G       F                       C
How could I be so wrong (so wrong) for so long (so long)
          G                     F                       Am
How could I (how could I) be so wrong (so wrong) for so long (so long)
       D
For so long (for so long)
       F
For so long

[Solo]
Am  D  F

[Verse 4]
               C                            F
Then I heard a rumor, from an old friend of mine
                   C                             G      G7
You've been seeing someone else, I never saw the signs
                    C                          F
I hope he makes you happy and that he is happy too
    G                         F             C
And just like all the others, I'll get over you

[Chorus]
              G       F                       C
But how could I be so wrong (so wrong) for so long (so long)
          G       F                       C
How could I be so wrong (so wrong) for so long (so long)
          G                     F                       C
How could I (how could I) be so wrong (so wrong) for so long (so long)
          G       F            C
How could I be so wrong for so long
