Last night, all a- in a bar- room
GD
Met a girl with a drink in her hand
G7C
She had ruby red lips, coal black hair
GDGD
And eyes that would tempt any man. ...
GG7C
Then she came and sat down at my table
GD
And as she placed her soft hand in mine
GG7C
I found myself wanting to kiss her
GDGD7
For temp- tation was flowing like wine.
GG7C
And I was al- per- suaded
GD7
To strip myself of my pride
GG7C
Al- most per- suaded
GD7GE7
To push my conscience a- side. ...
CHANGE TO A:

Then we danced and she whispered, "I need you!
AE
Take me a- way from here and be my man."
AA7D
Then I looked into her eyes and I saw it
AE7AE7
The re- flection of my wedding band.
AA7D
And I was al- most per- suaded
AE
to let strange lips lead me on
AA7D
al- most per- suaded
AE7DA
But your sweet love made me stop and go home.
