Mr. Wonderful
Words & Music by Jerry Bock, Larry Holofeener & George David Weiss
Recorded by Peggy Lee, 1956
G D7/9 G G/F# Em7 Am7 Em7 C C/B Am7
Why this feeling? Why this glow?
Em7 Cdim G5 G/B Edim Am Am7 D9 Am7 D7
Why the thrill when you say Hel - lo?
Edim C C/B Edim D7/9 C C/B E
It's a strange and tender magic you do --
Edim C C/B Am7 Bm7-5 D9 Am7 D7
Mister Wonderful, that's you.
G D7/9 G G/F# Em7 Am7 Em7 C C/B Am7
Why this trembling when you speak?
Em7 Cdim G5 G/B Edim Am Am7 D9 Am7 D7
Why this joy when you touch my cheek?
Edim C C/B Edim D7/9 C C/B E
I must tell you what my heart knows is true,
Edim C C/B Am7 D9 G Am7 G
Mister Wonderful, that's you.
Bridge:
G Am7 Em G7 F C G7 C
And why this longing to know your charms,
C/B A7 Em7 A7 Edim D7
To spend forever here in your arms?
G D7/9 G G/F Em7 Am7 Em7 C C/B Am7
Oh there's much more I could say,
Em7 Cdim G5 G/B Edim Am Am7 D9 Am7 D7
But the words keep slip - ping a - way
Edim C C/B Edim D7/9 C C/B E
And I'm left with only one point of view --
Edim C C/B Am7 D9 G Am7 G
Mister Wonderful, that's you
G G/F# Em7 D7/9 Cdim E7
One more thing, then I'm through --
Cdim C C/B Am7 Edim G G/F# E7/9
Mister Wonderful, Mister Wonderful,
Edim A9 A7/9 Am7 Cdim C C/B Cm7 Am7 G
Mister Wonderful, I love you!
