I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight 
5     5 5    5   5    -5   5   4
I've never seen you shine so bright 
-4   5   4
mmm-mmm-mmm
3     5 5    5   5  5 5  5   5   5   5   5 -4 -4 4    -4
I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance 
  5       5  5    5 5  -5-5   5    4	
They're looking for a little romance, 
 5 5   -5  5   4
given half a chance 
5  5    -5-5  -5   -5    -5    5      5 -4
I have never seen that dress you're wearing 
-4   5  -5  -5    -5  5     6   -5  -5      5  5	
Or the highlights in your head that catch your eyes 
4  -5   5     -4
I have been blind 
-4  -4 5 -5  6  -6  -6  6   -5  5    -4  -4  5
The lady in red is dancing with me cheek to cheek 
  5      5-56   -6   4      4   -4  5  5  
There's nobody here, it's just you and me, 
5      5    5  5 5  5
It's where I wanna be 
 6  6  -6  7   -6  -7   -7 -6 -7  7 -7 -665
But I hardly know this beauty by my side 
4     4-4   5 -4    3   5   -4  4    -3 4
I'll never forget, the way you look tonight 

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 

The way you look tonight 
I never will forget, the way you look tonight 
The lady in red 
The lady in red 
The lady in red 
My lady in red (I love you.)
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
