ALMOST PERSUADED As recorded by Conway Twitty (From the 1966 Album LOOK INTO MY TEARDROPS) [Intro] E7 [Verse 1]

Last ^Anight all a^A7lone ^Din a barroom Met the ^Agirl with a drink in her ^E7hand She had ^Aruby red ^A7lips and ^Dcoal black hair And ^Aeyes that would ^E7tempt any ^Aman

[Verse 2]

^AThen she came and sat down at ^Dmy table And as ^Ashe placed her soft hands in ^E7mine I ^Afound myself wanting ^Dto kiss her For temp^Atation was ^E7flowing like ^Awine

[Chorus]

^AAnd I was almost per^Dsuaded To ^Astrip myself of my ^Epride ^AAlmost per^Dsuaded To ^Aput my ^Econscience a^Aside^F#

N.C.

[Verse 3]

Then we ^Bdanced and she ^B7whispered ^EI need you Take me a^Bway from here and be my ^F#7man Then I ^Blooked in her eyes and ^EI saw it The re^Bflection of ^F#7my wedding ^Bband

[Out-Chorus]

And I was al^B7most per^Esuaded To ^Blet soft lips lead me ^F#7on ^BAlmost per^Esuaded But your ^Bsweet love made me ^F#stop and go ^Eho^C#mme..^B.
