Mood : Emo Mood (This song reminds me of my favorite company that I left) also as in Romantic Emo
Key : G Major
(Romantic Oldies are very simple to play. Lyrics and Melody are crystal clear. Accompaniment is ballad style and graceful. Meaning of lyrics are very pure and direct, no hanky panky. Sheet Music are available everywhere too! Click here to view the video)
Chords are pretty simple :
1st : G
2nd : D but starts with F#, so you run your fingers along F#, D, F#, A
3rd : C
4th : D
(Intro twice. 1st time higher, softer. 2nd time, lower, more depth)
It's late in the evening
She's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make up
And brushes her long blonde hair
(Basic chords here, follow the introduction. G, D (F#), C, D)
And then she asks me
Do I look alright
And I say yes, you look wonderful tonight
(Chords here are C, D, to G, F#, E, back to C, D, back to G)
(Intro style once. You may use broken chords to enrich your intro style. Check out the video)
We go a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
That's walking around with me
(More depth this time with more chords on right hand. Basic chords here, follow the introduction. G, D (F#), C, D)
And then she asks me
Do you feel alright
And I say yes, I feel wonderful tonight
(Chords here are C, D, to G, F#, E, back to C, D, back to G)
I feel wonderful
(STRONG C)
Because I see the love light in your eyes
(D to G, F#, E)
And the wonder of it all
(STRONG C)
Is that you just don't realize
(D back to C)
How much I love you
(Back to D then back to G)
(Intro style again, twice, any style you like)
It's time to go home now
And I've got an aching head
So I give her the car keys
She helps me to bed
(Basic chords here, follow the introduction. G, D (F#), C, D)
And then I tell her
As I turn out the light
I say my darling, you were wonderful tonight
(Chords here are C, D, to G, F#, E, back to C, D, back to G)
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight
(Repeat C, D to G, slow down towards the end)
