[TENDERNESS]
With each word your tenderness grows

Tearing my fears apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
Touches my foolish heart

Lovely, never, ever change
Keep that breathless charm
Won’t you please arrange it? Cause I love you
Just the way you look tonight

[TENDERNESS]

You’re lovely don’t you ever change
Keep that breathless charm
Won’t you please arrange it, ’cause I love you
Just the way you look tonight
Tonight

 

 

xxxxxxx

Some day, when I’m awfully low
Yes, you’re lovely, with your smile so warm

Lovely, never, never change


xxxxxxx

When the world is cold
And your cheeks so soft

Keep that breathless charm

xxxxxx

I will feel a glow just thinking of you

There is nothing for me but to love you

Won’t you please arrange it, cause I love you

xxxxxx

And the way you look tonight

And the way you look tonight

And the way you look tonight

xxxxxxx

Third verse: – – – mm – – – mm – – Just the way you look tonight

The Way You Look Tonight – C

STANZA

C7 C# Dm7 G

With each word your tenderness grows

Em7 D# Dm7 G7

Tearing my fears apart

Em7 A7 Dm7 G7
And that laugh (that) wrinkles your nose

C7 C# Bm7 E7

Touches my foolish heart


Sing first two verses

then Stanza

Then the third verse

then another Stanza

Someday, when I’m old and grey

Which might be today

I will stay right here with my new family

and the way they look tonight.

Judy, this is your new song

Sandy, sing along

John can tap his ring upon the table

And George will spin the Bingo balls.

With each song that Bill sings tonight

We laugh but we don’t fight

And the fact that you all are here

I hold so dear these days

Yes we’re here now; Safe and sound at last

What has passed is past

And we share a drink with our new family

Laughing hand in hand tonight

We’ll sing another song tonight.

And we share a drink with our new family
Laughing hand in hand tonight
