Theme:  G - - - / D - - - / C - - - / D - - -/
        G - - - / D - - - / C - - - / D - - -/


G                   D       C                     D
   It's late in the evening, she's wondering what clothes to wair

G                  D       C                D
   She puts on her make-up, and brushes her long blonde hair

C               D       G     D        Em
   And then she asks me, do I look all right

          C             D           G(theme played twice)
And I say yes, you look wonderful tonight


After 2.verse:

       C            D               G          D       Em
I feel wonderful, because I see the love-light in your eyes

         C            D               C             D               G(theme)
then the wonder of it all is that you just don't realise how much I love you
