G                       D/F#
On the inside flap of a matchbook cover
Em          *Harmonic     C
She made me           the kind of offer
G           D                     C
No man in a weak state could have run from
G
I tried to think
D/F#
What a gentleman would say
Em
That's turning that kind
C
Of opportunity away
G
I tried my best
   D                    C
To tell her I'm not the right one
G                  D                    G
Like no man in his wrong heart would've done

N.C.   C             G
I said no ma'am like no man would have
D
said if he wasn't in love
     G
With you the way I am
                 C                   D
It would've been easy for me to be a goner
    Em                    C                D
But something a whole lot stronger made me run
     C             D                    G  (play intro lick)
Like no man in his wrong heart would've done


       G                      D/F#
Didn't want her to think that I wasn't flattered
Em                  C
Her interest in me, believe me it mattered
G                    D                         C
So I dropped several quarters in that old juke box
        G                       D/F#
I said ñI want you to dance all night on me
     C                         D
In a lucky man's arms, whoever he might be
       G                  D                 C
Then I hit that door like I was shot from a gun
     C             D                    G
Like no man in his wrong heart wouldÍve done


I said no ma'am
like no man
Would have said if he wasn't in love
With you the way I am
It would've been easy for me to be a goner
    G                     C                D
But something a whole lot stronger made me run
Like no man in his wrong heart would've done
     G             C
Like no man in his wrong heart *Repeat and fade
