Whenever I see your smiling face,
A E/G# F#m7 A/B E C#m7 F#m7 A/B
I have to smile myself, because I love you.
E B/D# C#m7 E/B
And when you give me that pretty little pout
A E/G# F#m7
it turns me inside out.
A/B E C#m7 F#m7 B G#7/C
There's something about you baby, I don't know.
C#m G#m A A#dim B G#7/C C#m7 E/B
Isn't it amazing a man like me can feel this way
A E/G# F#m7 A B
Tell me how much longer. It will grow stronger every day
G#m C#
Oh, how much longer
F# C#/F D#m7 F#/C#
I thought I was in love just a couple of times
B F#/A# G#m7 B/C#
before with the girl next door, but that was
F# D#m7 G#m7 B/C#
long before I met you. Now I'm sure that I won't forget you.
F# C#/F D#m7 F#/C#
And I thank my lucky stars that
B F#/A# G#m7 B/C#
you are who you are and not just
F# D#m7 G#m7 C# Bb7/D
another lovely lady sent down to break my heart.
D#m A#m B Cdim C# Bb7/D D#m7 F#/C#
Isn't it amazing a man like me can feel this way
B F#/A# G#m7
Tell me how much longer. It can grow stronger every day
