Last C night, all a-{C7} lone in a bar-{F} room
Met a C man with a drink in his G hand
He had C7 baby-blue eyes, F coal black hair
And a C smile that a girl G under-{C} stands. ... G
Then he C came and sat C7 down at my F table
And as he C placed his hand over G mine
I C found myself C7 wanting to F kiss him
For temp-{C} tation was G flowing like C wine. G7
And I was C al-{C7} per-{F} suaded
To C strip myself of my G7 pride
C Al-{C7} most per-{F} suaded
To C push my G7 conscience a-{C} side. ... A7
CHANGE TO D:
Then we D danced and he D7 whispered, "I G need you!
Let me D take you away, and be your A man."
Then I D looked into his D7 eyes and I G saw it
The re-{D} flection of A7 my wedding D band. A7
And I was D al-{D7} most per-{G} suaded
To D let strange lips lead me A on
D al-{D7} most per-{G} suaded,
But your D sweet love made me A7 stop and go G home. D
