Wonderful, Wonderful!
Words & Music by Ben Raleigh & Sherman Edwards
Recorded by Johnny Mathis, 1957 (#14)
A6 D6 A6 D6
Sometimes we walk hand in hand by the sea
A6 D6 A6
And we breathe in the cool, salty air;
D6 G6 D6 G6
You turn to me with a kiss in your eyes,
D Bm7-5 Fdim(III) Fdim Dm6
And my heart feels a thrill beyond compare.
F#m F#m7
Then your lips cling to mine,
Bm7 Fdim Dm6 A B7 Bm7-5 Fdim E7
It's wonderful, won - der - ful, oh, so won-der-ful my love.
A6 D6 A6 D6
Sometimes we stand on the top of a hill
A6 D6 A6
And we gaze at the earth and the sky;
D6 G6 D6 G6
I turn to you, and you melt in my arms;
D Bm7-5 Fdim(III) Fdim Dm6
There we are, darling, only you and I,
F#m F#m7
What a moment we share,
Bm7 Gdim Dm6 A B7 A Bm Cdim A
It's wonderful, won-der-ful, oh, so wonderful my love.
Bridge:
DM7 D6 Em7 A7 D
The world is full of won'drous things, it's true,
F#m7 D6 B7 E7
But they wouldn't have much meaning without you.
A6 D6 A6 D6
Some quiet evenings I sit by your side
A6 D6 A6
And we're lost in a world of our own;
D6 G6 D6 G6
I feel the glow of your unspoken love,
D Bm7-5 Fdim(III) Fdim Dm6
I'm aware of the treasure that I own;
F#m F#m7
And I say to myself,
Bm7 Fdim Dm6 A B7 A D9
"It's wonderful, won-der-ful, oh, so wonderful my love."
Coda:
F#m F#m7 Bm7 Gdim Dm6
I say to myself, " It's wonderful, won-der-ful,
A D B7 E7 A
Oh, so wonderful my love."
