-------

C               G/B
It's late in the evening
F                    G
She's wondering what clothes to wear
C               G/B
She puts on her make up
F               G
And brushes her long blonde hair


Chorus:

F             G
And then she asks me
[C     G/B]     Am

And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight"

F
I feel wonderful
G                 [C         G/B]    Am 
Because I see the love light in your eyes
       F             G
And the wonder of it all

It's time to go home now
And I've got an aching head
So I give her the car keys

Oh my darling, you are wonderful tonight
