1. I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight,
                                   a       G   F

                                    a            G       F
    they're looking for a little romance, given half a chance.
              d                                
    And I've never seen that dress you're wearing,

                F - G                     C - e                  C7
there's nobody here,   it's just you and me,  it's where I wanna be,
               F  E                      a - G - F
but I hardly know     this beauty by my side,
               d - G                     C     - a - G    C - a - G
I'll never forget    the way you look tonight.

                                   a         G     F
    I've never seen you shine so bright you were amazing.
          C                         a                        G
    I've never seen so many people want to be there by your side,
                                    a                        F
    and when you turned to me and smiled it took my breath away.
                d                                  G         
    And I have never had such a feeling , such a feeling
                           a          F    G
    of complete and utter love, as I do tonight. + REFRAIN
                       d - G                     a  - F
