David Houston - Almost Persuaded guitar chord

David Houston - Almost Persuaded

Capo 1

G G7 C

Last night all alone in a barroom

G D

Met a girl with a drink in her hand

G G7 C

She had ruby red lips, coal black hair

G D G

And eyes that would tempt any man.

G G7 C

Then she came and sat down at my table

G D

And as she placed her soft hands in mine

G G7 C

I found myself wanting to kiss her

G D G

For temptation was flowing like wine.

G G7 C

And I was Almost Persuaded

G D

To strip myself of my pride

G G7 C

Almost Persuaded

G D G E

To push my conscience aside.

A A7 D

Then we danced and she whispered, "I need you,

A E

Take me away from here and be my man."

A A7 D

Then I looked into her eyes and saw it

A E A

The reflection of my wedding band.

A A7 D

And I was Almost Persuaded

A E

To let strange lips lead me on

A A7 D

Almost Persuaded

A E A

But your sweet love made me stop and go home.
