Verse 1
D
Em
G
First of all, I'd
D
like to
say good evening
Em
And we're so pleased that
D
So many of you could come out and share
Em
In all the love and all the happiness
D
we have in store for you
We want you to have a real
Em
good time
'Cause that's just
G
D
what we have in mind
Em
Is that alright with you?
D
Em
Now, this is a tune that I composed
And it's called,
G
D
Em
G
"Tonight is the night"
D
That you make me a woman
Em
D
Now, I never intended recording this song
Em
D
It was a personal poem
That is, until the day that my
producer
Em
Happened to thumb through
G
D
the pages of my notebook
He came across the words
Em
and he said
G
"We gotta do somethin' with these words
D
It's happening every day
Em
G
And people wanna hear about it, Betty"
D
Em
D
You see, it's the story of a young girl
Em
D
Making love for the very first time
Em
D
Em
Now, when I finally got a melody
I took it home and I,
D
Em
I played it for my mother
D
Now, I gotta tell you a little bit
about my mother
Em
You see, I come from one of those
pretty large families
A
D
And I'm the baby of the family
And you know you never
Em
G
grow up to your mother
D
I'll never forget the way she looked
Em
at me when I played it for her
D
Em
She said, "Uh, I like the music
D
You know, baby, the melody,
it's really nice
Em
But I know you're not gonna
D
sing that song"
Em
But we eased it right on by her, yes,
D
we did
And it became one of my
biggest records, too
Em
So I want you to do this for
G
D
me if you will
Em
G
D
Em
Everybody think back to your
D
Em
D
very first time
Em
G
D
Em
Now, I'll give you a little
while longer
D
'Cause I know some of you
Em
Have to think back a little bit
A
D
further than others
Em
Come on now, I want you to play catch- up
G
D
'Cause I don't want you waitin'
'til I get to the end of my song
Em
Sayin', "Oh, yeah, now I remember"
G
D
Em
A
D
Now, whether it was good
Em
Oh, you just smilin', it was good
D
Or on the other hand if it was not so good

Here's my story
