[Verse 1] I drew the map upside down Told the whole room, “This way!” Took three wrong turns through the market Still made it home with a story to say You saw me miss the easy answer Saw me laugh and try once more Every crooked line I leave behind Shows I stepped outside the door [Pre-Chorus] So if I stumble where you can see I’ll take a bow, then count to three [Chorus] Wrong way, bright day, I’m still in the game Missed that mark, but I showed up the same Hands up, chin up, let the whole room know I learned one thing where the brave ones go Wrong way, bright day, no shame to hide We make a little room for the next try If I fall in front of you, watch me begin The beautiful art of being wrong again [Verse 2] I said the name wrong at the meeting Then we all learned how to say it right Spilled my notes beside the doorway Picked them up and stayed all night You don’t need a perfect record You just need a heart that’s game Every time we miss together We come back a little less afraid [Pre-Chorus] So if I stumble where you can see I’ll take a bow, then count to three [Chorus] Wrong way, bright day, I’m still in the game Missed that mark, but I showed up the same Hands up, chin up, let the whole room know I learned one thing where the brave ones go Wrong way, bright day, no shame to hide We make a little room for the next try If I fall in front of you, watch me begin The beautiful art of being wrong again [Bridge] Not wasted, not wasted Every try leaves a trace Not finished, not finished There is room to change pace You can watch me get it wrong You can watch me start again [Final Chorus] Wrong way, bright day, I’m still in the game Missed that mark, but I showed up the same Hands up, chin up, let the whole room know I learned one thing where the brave ones go Wrong way, bright day, no shame to hide We make a little room for the next try If I fall in front of you, watch me begin The beautiful art of being wrong again [Outro] Watch me begin Wrong again, try again
