Verse 1

Whenever I see your smiling face, I have to smile myself, because I
love you.   
And when you give me that pretty little pout it turns me inside out.
There's somethin' about ya baby, I don't know. 

Chorus

Isn't it amazing a man like me can feel this way
Oh, tell me how much longer. I can grow stronger every day
Ohhh......
(MOVE CAPO UP TO SIXTH FRET)

Verse 2

I thought I was in love just a couple of times before with the girl
next door, but that was long before I met ya. Now I'm sure that I
won't forget ya.
And I thank my lucky stars that you are who you are and not just
another lovely lady set out to break my heart.

Chorus

Isn't it amazing a man like me can feel this way?
Oh, tell me how much longer. I can grow stronger every day
Ohhh......
(After the chorus, move the capo up to the eighth fret)
Somebody talk to me

Bridge

No one can tell me that I'm doin' wrong today 
Whenever I see you smilin' at me
No one can tell me that I'm doin' wrong today 
Whenever I see you shine that lovely thing my way
(The rest of the song alternates between the verse progression and the
bridge progression. Play the verse progression once, then play the bridge
progression once over and over until the end of the song.)
