Johnny Gave Susan A Wedding Band

Now She Wears It On Her Left Hand

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

A Right Hand Man Can Be Your Lover

Carry The Load When The Wind Blows Cold

He Can Be Replaced By Another

Who's Carrying The Gold

Susan Made Me Think Our Love Was Real
                  D           G
There Are Times I Believe Her Still

But Johnny Walked In Right Out Of Left Field
                          D         G
Put A Right Hand Man In A Left Hand Deal

Repeat CHORUS
C        G
Carry No Gold

A Right Hand Man Don't Carry No Gold
C                                  G              C           G
They Say Don't Let Your Right Hand Know What Your Left Hands Doin'
D                    C                     G
Susan Kept Me In The Dark For A Long, Long Time
         C                               G       D    C
I Had No Idea That Love's Foundation Was Turning Into Ruin
        D                  C         D        G
Because Being A Right Hand Man Was A Dream Of Mine
