This is the first song from which I submit chords, hope you like it. Feedback appreciated!

When transposing I recommend using a capo instead of changing the chords, to retain the original feel of the song.

Intro:
C Cmaj7 C Fmaj7 F Fmaj7 C Cmaj7 C Fmaj7 G

Verse 1:
      C                          Fmaj7                  G
I've never seen you looking so lovely, as you did tonight.
         E                     Am       G      F
I've never seen you shine so bright... ooo... ooo
       C                      Fmaj7                      G
I've never seen so many men asking if you wanted to dance.
         E                     Am            G       F
They're looking for a little romance, given half a chance.
           Dm                              Dm7
And I have never seen that dress you're wearing.
          G                                     Am
Or the highlights in your hair that catch your eyes.
               G
I have been blind.

Chorus:

            C Cmaj7 C Fmaj7  G         Am    G        Am
The lady in red,      is dancing with me.... Cheek to cheek.
                Dm  G                   C
There's nobody here, it's just you and me.
                      C7
It's where I want to be.
              F     E               Am    Fmaj7
But I hardly know this beauty by my side.
           Dm         G                 C      
I'll never forget.... The way you look tonight.

C Cmaj7 C Fmaj7 F Fmaj7 C Cmaj7 C Fmaj7 G

Verse 2:

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

Chorus

C   Cmaj7 C Fmaj7    F       Fmaj7
