Couldn't Resist The Temptation

Key: Am
Tempo: Slow and smoldering, 68 BPM

[Intro]
Am F E Am

[Verse 1]
Am F
The shadows danced like firelight,
E Am
Whispering secrets in the dead of night.
Am F
A scent of danger lingered in the air,
E Am
I knew I should leave, but I stayed right there.

[Pre-Chorus]
F G
Every step, a line I shouldn’t cross,
E Am
But your eyes held me, no time for loss.

[Chorus]
F G
I couldn’t resist the temptation,
E Am
Your touch was a spell, a revelation.
F G
In your arms, I felt the world fade away,
E Am
No turning back, though the price I’d pay.

[Instrumental]
Am F G E

[Verse 2]
Am F
Your voice, a melody of sin and desire,
E Am
Pulling me deeper into the fire.
Am F
I knew the cost but ignored the signs,

E Am
A prisoner bound by these chains of mine.

[Pre-Chorus]
F G
Every word, a spark to the flame,
E Am
I was a moth, drawn to the game.

[Chorus]
F G
I couldn’t resist the temptation,
E Am
Your kiss was a storm, no hesitation.
F G
In your arms, I felt the world fade away,
E Am
No turning back, though the price I’d pay.

[Bridge]
F G
Now I stand on the edge of regret,
Am E
A moment of passion I can’t forget.
F G
Your shadow lingers, haunting my mind,
E Am
A love forbidden, a truth unkind.
[Chorus - Reprise]
F G
I couldn’t resist the temptation,
E Am
Your fire consumed my hesitation.
F G
In your arms, I felt the world fade away,
E Am
No turning back, though the price I’d pay.

[Outro]
Am F
The shadows fade, but the scars remain,
E Am
A heart that loved you, forever stained.
