Intro: Bb

Verse 1:
      Bb                        Eb                  F
I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight,
      D                    Gm          F   Eb   F
I've never seen you shine so bright, m m m m.
      Bb                    Eb                        F
I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance,
         D                      Gm           F       Eb
They're looking for a little romance, given half a chance,
            Cm                   
And I have never seen that dress you're wearing,
        F                                      Gm
Or the highlights in your hair that catch your eyes,
              F
I have been blind,

Chorus:
             Bb Dm Eb     F            Gm   F        Gm 
The lady in red       is dancing with me, cheek to cheek,
                  Cm F                    Bb
There's nobody here,   it's just you and me, it's where I want to be,
               Eb D                    Gm   Em
But I hardly know   this beauty by my side,
               Cm F                     Bb    Eb F Bb Eb F
I'll never forget   the way you look tonight, 

Verse 2:
      Bb                        Eb                    F
I've never seen you looking so gorgeous as you did tonight,
      D                    Gm             F     Eb      F
I've never seen you shine so bright, you were amazing,
      Bb                        Eb                       F
I've never seen so many people want to be there by your side,
              D                 Gm                 Bb     Eb
And when you turned to me and smiled, it took my breath away,
            Cm
And I have never had such a feeling,
        F                             Gm              F
Such a feeling of complete and utter love, as I do tonight,

             Bb Dm Eb     F            Gm   F        Gm
The lady in red       is dancing with me, cheek to cheek,
                  Cm F                    Bb
There's nobody here,   it's just you and me, it's where I want to be,
               Eb D                    Gm   Em
But I hardly know   this beauty by my side,
               Cm F                     Gm  Bb E
I'll never forget   the way you look tonight,
                 Cm      F              Bb   Eb
I never will forget the way you look tonight.
     F       Bb  Eb
The lady in red, 
     F       Bb  Eb
The lady in red,
     F       Bb  Eb
The lady in red, 
    F       Bb
My lady in red,
