G                               C 
He walked in while we sat there talking 
  
   G                             D7 
An old friend she'd known a long time  

  G                         C 
I asked him to sit down and join us 
  
      D7                                G 
Cause any friend of hers is a friend of mine 
  
    D7              
The drinks were on him his eyes were on her 
  
        C    D7           G  
And the last laugh was on me  

  
                          C 
After each dance they sat closer 
  
    G                        D7 
And acted as though I wasn't there 
  
    G                        C 
And soon she was calling him baby  

  D7                                   G 
I heard him whisper can I meet you somewhere  

    D7 
His hand was on hers her eyes were on his  

        C    D7           G     
And the last laugh was on me
