	        Verse: 1 
Em                                                        C  
When I walked into this place, You were sitting in the dark  
Em                                      C  
With a ring on your third finger and a weight upon your heart 
        D                       C 
I said: “Mind if I sit down, you said : do as you see fit 
    Am                  D               Em 
You look like you deserve just what you get. 

Verse: 2 
Em                                                        C  
I've been drinking like a sailor and my senses have taken flight, 
Em                                      C  
I told you I was single you said looks like you are tonight. 
        D                       C 
I moved around to your side and you didn't make a fuss 
    Am                  D               Em 
I can see that there was something between us. 

Verse: 3 
Em                                                        C  
I said let me ask a question: have you been in here before? 
Em                                      C  
You said is that all you wondered I expected something more 
        D                       C 
I thought that you might ask why am I alone here in this bar? 
    Am                  D               Em 
I said all I need to know is that you are. 

Verse: 4 
Em                                                                  C  
Now I can see the look in your eye and I can taste the wine on your lips 
Em                                            C  
You got troubled on your mind and you have trouble on your hips 
        D                                          C 
I know that this ain't right, I can feel it in my bones  
    Am              D               Em 
But I don't wanna spend the night alone.  

Verse: 5 
Em                                              C  
So sit a little closer don't act like you don't know 
Em                                                       C  
Where this all thing is heading where the two of us will go 
        D                                               C 
It's August and it's hot outside, girl you ain't going home 
    Am             D              Em 
And I don't wanna spend the night alone (bis) 
    Am             D               Em 
No I don't wanna spend the night alone
