Cheryl Wheeler Right Way to do the Wrong Thing Lyrics

CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: G Gadd9 G Gadd9
Somehow the fair-haired boy has lost his place
Stepped from the golden light, fallen from grace
Scattered promises like broken glass
Turned his heart away from all he has
CHORUS:
And you can't believe and you can't explain
How a heart can beat and the world can change
And it's left you wondering
If there's a right way to do the wrong thing
New love's a warm surprise to a sleeping heart
We tell ourselves the old was wanting from the start
Hot tears in children's eyes, for the nights he calls
Photos of in-law aunts down off the walls
CHORUS:
And you can't believe and you can't explain
How a heart can beat and the world can change
And it's left you wondering
If there's a right way to do the wrong thing
BRIDGE:
Running now, he can't come clean
And she can't understand what's changing
This charade leaves her unknowing
Everyday these cracks keep growing deeper
INSTRUMENTAL: Am C G D (2x)
Church scenes and blue bouquets, trailing gowns
Don't foresee the ways the world can wear us down
We swear forever, with a sentimental heart
What god has joined together, now mostly falls apart
CHORUS:
And you can't believe and you can't explain
How a heart can beat and the world can change
And it's left you wondering
If there's a right way to do the wrong thing
And it's left you wondering
If there's a right way to do the wrong thing
