[Verse 1]
                    C
Cozy situations and careless conversations
       G                              D   D
Caused me to hide the married side of me
G                              C
Drinking leads to thinking and thinking leads to cheating
  G                D                    G   G
I slipped around until you slipped from me

[Chorus]
          G7        C
Champagne ladies and  blue ribbon babies
     G                              D    D
They tempted me but I met them half way
G         G7        C
Champagne ladies and  blue ribbon babies
     G                 D               G   G
Sweetheart what in the world came over me

[Solo]

[Verse 2]
G                         C
Memories and martinis are mixed up every evening
     G                        D7   D7
In a honky tonk on Loser's Avenue
G                   G7
Long blond hair and blue eyes
C
Lonesome songs and soft lights
G                D              G    G
Darling I've got everything but you

[Chorus]
          G7        C
Champagne ladies and  blue ribbon babies
     G                              D    D
They tempted me but I met them half way
G         G7        C
Champagne ladies and  blue ribbon babies
     G                 D               G   G
Sweetheart what in the world came over me
