Last night all along [B] in a bar room [D#m] I met a [F#] girl with a drink in her [C#] [F#] hand
[C#] she [F#] had ruby red lips [B] and cold black hair [F#] and a smile [C#] that would tempt [F#] any man
then she came and sit down [B] at my table and [F#] as she placed her soft hand [C#] on mine
I [F#] found myself wanting [B] to kiss her [F#] for temptation [C#] was flowing [F#] like wine
[C#] and [F] [G#m] [F#] I was almost [B] persuaded to [F#] strip myself [C#] of my pride
[F#] I almost [B] persuaded [C]
to [F#] push [C#] my conscience [F#] aside
[D]
then [G] we danced and [F] she [G] [Dm] whispered I [Em] need you [C] [G] take me away [Em] from here [F#m] be my [F] man
[Am]
[Bm] then [G#] [G] I looked [F] into [G] her eyes [Dm] and [G] I saw it [A#]
[G] the reflection [Em] of [D] my wedding [G] band
and [D]
[C#] [F#] [G] I was almost [C] persuaded to [G] let strange lips lead me [D] on
I [G] was almost [C] persuaded [C#]
but [G] your sweet love [D] made me stop and [G] go home
[C] [Cm] [G]
