Intro: (G) (D/G) (G) (C/G) (G) (Bm7) (G/B) (C) (D6) 

(D9) Al(G)one at a (Bm7) corner (Em7) table, (Dm7)
(G7) She was (C) watching me (Bm) watch(Am)ing (G) her.
I was (B7) singin' about an (Em7) old flame (C) burning,
She was (G) hanging on to (D6) every (G) word. (C/G)

(G) I was pouring (Bm7) out my (Em7) feelings, (Dm7)
(G7) (C) She was pouring (Bm) out (Am) the (G) wine.
Through the (B7) smoke and the beer,
It was (Em7) perfectly (C) clear,
That (G) we were touching (D6) each others (G) minds.

  (G/D) It (C/D) was (G) lo(D/G)ve (C) (D) ten feet a(G)way. (C/G)
  Imagine (G) her in my arms, with that (D) look on her face.
  (Em7) Lying somewhere in some (C) shadowy pla(D)ce.
  It was (G) lo(D/G)ve (C/G) (C) just (C/D) ten feet a(G)way.

(D/G) (G) (C/G) (G) (Bm7) (G/B) (C) (D6)

I just knew my closing song would do it,
I knew that I was heaven bound.
I could tell she was moved, but before I was through.
This stranger walked up and set down.

He was trying his best to impress her,
But she never took her eyes off me.
When he got up and left, I said to myself.
Woh-o-woh what a night this will be.

Repeat Chorus Twice

(D/G) (G) (C/G) (G) (Bm7) (G/B) (C) (D6) (D9) (G)
