You Were Wrong


(Verse 1)
[E]
You saw her glance across the room
[A]
Thought she was lookin’ straight at you
[E]
You straightened up, gave her a grin
[B]
Thought she was reelin’ you right in

(Pre-Chorus)
[A]
You told the boys, "She’s into me!"
[E]
Bought her a drink, all nice and sweet
[B]
You leaned in close, heart on the line
[A]
But brother, let me tell ya—here’s where it went blind

(Chorus)
[E]
If you thought she’d ask you out… You Were Wrong!
[A]
If you thought she’d spin you ‘round… You Were Wrong!
[E]
She walked on by, didn’t even blink
[B]
Left you standin’ there, too stunned to think
[E]
If you thought you had a chance… You Were Wrong!

(Verse 2)
[E]
She laughed a little, flipped her hair
[A]
You swore it meant she really cared
[E]
You shot your shot, you played it bold
[B]
Then she said, "Hey there… my boyfriend’s cold."

(Pre-Chorus)
[A]
You turned to see a six-foot-four
[E]
Linebacker type walk through the door
[B]
You took a step back, looked for the signs
[A]
But buddy, it was clear—love ain't on your side!

(Chorus)
[E]
If you thought she’d ask you out… You Were Wrong!
[A]
If you thought she’d spin you ‘round… You Were Wrong!
[E]
She kissed her man, then waved goodbye
[B]
Left you standin’ there wonderin’ why
[E]
If you thought you had a chance… You Were Wrong!

(Bridge)
[A]
Next time you see those eyes shine bright
[E]
Better make sure you read ‘em right
[B]
Not every smile means love’s in sight
[A]
Some girls just like to be polite!

(Chorus - Big Finish)
[E]
If you thought she’d ask you out… You Were Wrong!
[A]
If you thought you had no doubt… You Were Wrong!
[E]
She walked on by, left you in the dust
[B]
Better luck next time, adjust that trust
[E]
If you thought this was your song… You Were Wrong!
