As recorded by Conway Twitty
(From the 1966 Album LOOK INTO MY TEARDROPS)
[Intro]
E7
[Verse 1]
A A7 D
Last night all alone in a barroom
A E7
Met the girl with a drink in her hand
A A7 D
She had ruby red lips and coal black hair
A E7 A
And eyes that would tempt any man
[Verse 2]
A D
Then she came and sat down at my table
A E7
And as she placed her soft hands in mine
A D
I found myself wanting to kiss her
A E7 A
For temptation was flowing like wine
[Chorus]
A D
And I was almost persuaded
A E
To strip myself of my pride
A D
Almost persuaded
A E A F# N.C.
To put my conscience aside
[Verse 3]
B B7 E
Then we danced and she whispered I need you
B F#7
Take me away from here and be my man
B E
Then I looked in her eyes and I saw it
B F#7 B
The reflection of my wedding band
[Out-Chorus]
B7 E
And I was almost persuaded
B F#7
To let soft lips lead me on
B E
Almost persuaded
B F# E C#m B
But your sweet love made me stop and go home...
