You May Be Right Billy Joel
I apologize in advance for those of you who are advanced enought that this may question
intelligence, I am by no means trying to do that. I know that when I was first starting
it made it much easier if everything was spelled out in front of me and so I did the
I could to make it as easy as possible for everyone. I'm not saying I'm an expert and I
have made mistakes writing this out, which if I did I'm sorry, but I'm pretty sure that
is correct I hope it helps.

Verses:
[A]Friday night I crashed your party
Saturday I said I'm sorry
Sunday came and trashed me out agai[E]n
I was [Bm]only having fun
Wasn't [G]hurting anyone
And we [E]all enjoyed the weekend for a ch[A]ange
[A]I've been stranded in the combat zone
I walked through Bedford Stuy alone
Even rode my motorcycle in the rai[E]n
And you [Bm]told me not to drive
But I [G]made it home alive
So you [E]said that only proves that I'm in[A]sane

You may be [D]wrong for all I [E]know but you may be [A]right
Verses:
[A]Remember how I found you there
Alone in your electric chair
I told you dirty jokes until you smile[E]d
You were [Bm]lonely for a man
I said [G]take me as I am
Cause you [E]might enjoy some madness for a[A]while
[A]Now think of all the years you've tried to
Find someone to satisfy you
I might be as crazy as they [E]say
If I'm [Bm]crazy then it's true
That it's [G]all because of you
And you [E]wouldn't want me any other [A]way

You may be right
