Almost Persuaded

Last night all alone in a barroom
C
G7
Met a man with a drink in his hand
C
F
He had baby blue eyes coal black hair
C
G7
C
And a smile that a girl understands
G7

Then he came and sat down at my table
C
G7
And as he placed his hand over mine
C
C7
F
I found myself wanting to kiss him
C
G7
C
For temptation was flowing like wine
G7
C
C7
F
And I was al-  most persuaded
C
G7
To strip myself of my pride
C
C7
F
Al-  most persuaded
C
G7
C
To push my conscience aside
G7
C

F
Then we danced and he whispered I need you
C
G7
Let me take you away and be your man
C

Then I looked into his eyes and I saw it
C
G7
C
The reflection of my wedding band
G7
C7
F
And I was al-most persuaded
C
G7
To let strange lips lead me on
C
C7
F
Al-  most persuaded
C
G7
C
But your sweet love made me stop and go home
