          D6

Can't you see by the look in my eyes
Can't you see (can't you see)
Can't you see I'm in paradise.

Chorus:
E           B     C       G
I feel all right, I feel OK
               Dmaj7                      D
'cause I'm in love, and you shouldn't be sad.

People say (People say)
That love can do funny things
But I say (But I say)
I'm gonna take what the future brings

Chorus

No you can't be sad my darling,
if you say you love me too

Well it seems that all the good things

I've done, done it all for you.

Done it all, done it all for you.

Can't you see (Can't you see)
Can't you see by the look in my eyes?
Can't you see (Can't you see)
Can't you see I'm in paradise?

I'm in love
And I know, and I know
And I know, and I know
That you shouldn't be sad
