       A
I can feel a new expression on my face
                                        E
I can feel a glowing sensation taking place
       D                 E             A  A/G# F#m E
I can hear the guitars playing lovely tunes
D     A/C#       E               A
Every time that you walk in the room

I close my eyes for a second and pretend
it's me you want
Meanwhile I try to act so nonchalant
I feel the summer's night with a magic moon
Every time that you walk in the room

D  A/C#       E
Baby it's a dream come true
D        A/C#       E
Walking right alongside of you
A                         F#m
Wish I could tell you how much I care
B                              E
But I only have the nerve to stare

A
I can feel-a something pounding in my brain
                                  E
Just anytime that someone speaks your name
D                  E               A  A/G# F#m E
Trumpets sound and I hear thunder boom
D    A/C#        E               A
Every time that you walk in the room
D     A/C#       E               A
Every time that you walk in the room
