[Verse 1]
F
I fumbled with the napkin
G
I had a glass of wine
C
I was a little early
Am
I had a little time
Dm7
I sat up at the bar
G
Talkin' to a stranger
C G Am
It seemed a safe thing to do
Dm7
While I was waiting
G C
While I was waiting for you
F
He said that I was pretty
G
Then he turned back to his beer
C
And somethin' 'bout this stranger
Am
Was subtle and sincere
Dm7
He said he grew up in Memphis
G
But he didn't like the blues
C G Am
And our one dance turned into two
Dm7
While I was waiting
G C
While I was waiting for you

[Chorus]
F
When you walked in the door
G
When you walked up to him
C
When you took my hand
F
And said that you were cutting in
Fmaj7
This stranger from Memphis
G
Was very polite
Am D7
He said "You sure do have a lovely wife"
Dm7 C G
Wife, he thought I was your wife

[Verse 2]
F
Well that's what got me thinking
G
It's like someone slammed a door
C
You just want a girlfriend
Am
I want so much more
Dm7
You ask me what's the hurry
G
You say let's take our time
