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
