[Intro]
| E | F#m7 | E | F#m7 |
 
 
[Verse]
    E
She came on like the night
F#m7     Amaj7
 And she held on tight
        Abm7                 F#m7             Emaj7
And the world was right when she made love to me
        F#m7/B
We were free
 
 
[Verse]
    E
She moved in like a friend...
F#m7     Amaj7
 Started loving me
      Abm7                F#m7          Emaj7
And I thought I found the heaven in her eyes
 
 
[Bridge]
        F#m7           B
But the morning when I woke up
      Ab7               C#m7
I was here and she was gone
        F#m7
Now I’m hanging on
F#m7/B
Maybe you can tell me
 
 
[Chorus]
      Amaj7   Abm7
How a love so right
                C#m7
Can turn out to be
   F#m7
So wrong
      F#m7/B
Oh my darling
      Amaj7   Abm7
How a love so right
                C#m7
Can turn out to be
   F#m7   | F#m7/B |
So wrong
 
 
[Verse]
     E        F#m7
Where did she go
       Amaj7
When I need her close to me?
        Abm7          F#m7         Emaj7
And the perfect story ended at the start
 
 
[Bridge]
  F#m7                B
I thought you came forever
        Ab7              C#m7
And you came to break my heart 
        F#m7
Now I’m hanging on
       F#m7/B
On the chance that you'll come back to me 
 
 
[Chorus]
      Amaj7   Abm7
How a love so right
                C#m7
Can turn out to be
   F#m7
So wrong
      F#m7/B
Oh my darling
      Amaj7   Abm7
How a love so right
                C#m7
Can turn out to be
   F#m7
So wrong
      F#m7/B
Oh my darling
 
 
[Middle 8]
        A
I could take it in my stride
       Am
Start living for the moment
Abm7                                  C#7
 Maybe half the things we sought were never there
       F#m7
Simply open up our eyes and break it down to size
   F#m7/B
It isn’t really fair
 
 
[Chorus] (with ad lib falsetto vocals)
      Amaj7   Abm7
How a love so right
                C#m7
Can turn out to be
   F#m7
So wrong
      F#m7/B
Oh my darling
      Amaj7   Abm7
How a love so right
                C#m7
Can turn out to be
   F#m7
So wrong
      F#m7/B
Oh my darling
