Because One Of Us Was Wrong Chords & Lyrics Artist: Dolly Parton, Porter Wagoner

VERSE 1
C               G7                         C
I'm sorry I was weak enough to step out on you
                        G7                                   C
Well I should have been strong enough not to step out on you too
                               C7              F
I know that I'd hurt you and I stepped out for spite
                      C                    G7            C
Because one of us was wrong don't mean the other one was right
 
VERSE 2
                 G7                                      C
I'm not making excuses for myself I was wrong as I could be
                       G7                                         C
But you shouldn't have cheapened yourself tryin' to get even with me
                                    C7              F
My conscience bothers me mine, won't let me sleep at night
                      C                    G7            C
Because one of us was wrong don't mean the other one was right
 
VERSE 3
    G7                              F               C
Two wrongs don't make one right and now we both got heartaches
D7                        G7
But if we both try we can forgive each other for our mistakes
                C
We’re lettin’ a wonderful love slip through our hands
            C7      F
We'd better hold on tight
                      C                    G7            C
Because one of us was wrong don't mean the other one was right
 
[Ending]
        F             C                    G7            C
Because one of us was wrong don't mean the other one was right
