It's late in the evening, she's wondering what clothes to wear
|G |D/F# |C |D |
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair
|C |D |G D/F# |Em |
And then she asks me, do I look all right?
|C |D |
And I say, “Yes, you look wonderful tonight”
|G |D/F# |C |D |
|G |D/F# |C |D |
We go to a party and everyone turns to see
|G |D/F# |C |D |
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me
|C |D |G D/F# |Em |
And then she asks me, do you feel all right?
|C |D |
And I say, “Yes, I feel wonderful tonight”
|G |G |
|C |D |G D/F# |Em |
I feel wonderful because I see the love light in your eyes
|C |D |C |D |
And the wonder of it all is that you just don't realise how much I love you
|G |D/F# |C |D |
|G |D/F# |C |D |
|G |D/F# |C |D |
It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head
|G |D/F# |C |D |
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed
|C |D |G D/F# |Em |
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light
|C |D |
I say, “My darling, you were wonderful tonight”
|G D/F# |Em Em/D |
|C D |
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight
