[Verse 1]
      D                           (Riff 1)
I can feel a new expression on my face.
                                      A    (Riff 2)
I can feel a glowing sensation taking place.
      G                A              D      Bm
I can hear the guitars playing lovely tu----nes,
G     F#m       A               D (Riff 1 X2)
Every time that you walk in the room.            0:52

[Verse 2]
          D                                         (Riff 1)
I close my eyes for a second and pretend it's me you want.
                                A   (Riff 2)
Meanwhile I try to act so nonchalant.
        G            A            D      Bm
I see a summer night with a magic mo-----on,
G     F#m       A               D (Riff 1 X2)
Every time that you walk in the room.            1:31

[Bridge]
G  F#m       A
Maybe it's a dream come true,
G        F#m         A
Standing right along side of you.
D                         Bm
Wish I could show you how much I care,
E7                           A
But I only have the nerve to stare.   1:50

[Verse 3]
      D                               (Riff 1)
I can feel a something pounding in my brain,
                                      A   (Riff 2)
Just anytime that someone speaks your name.
G                 A            D      Bm
Trumpets sound, I hear thunder bo-----om,
G     F#m       A               D (Riff 1)
Every time that you walk in the room.     2:23

[Outro] х5 < fadeout at end of 4th >
G     F#m       A               A (Riff 1)
Every time that you walk in the room    2:33  2:43  2:53  3:03  3:06
