Amaj7                         C#m     A 
There's nothing you can do to turn me away 
Bm7                Amaj7 
Nothing anyone can say 
       D#m7    D#         C#m7                    
You're with me now and as long as you stay 
C#m7                            Emaj7 
Lovin' you's the right thing to do 
Bm7              F#m7  Amaj7 
Lovin' you's the right thing 

  Amaj7                              C#m      A 
I know you've had some bad luck with ladies before 
     Bm7                         Amaj7 
They drove you or you drove them crazy 
         D#m7         D#                C#m7 
But more important is I know you're the one and I'm sure 
C#m7                            Emaj7 
Lovin' you's the right thing to do 
Bm7              F#m7  Amaj7 
Lovin' you's the right thing 

       Bm7              C#m7 
And it used to be for a while 
         Amaj7  F#m7         Bm7   Amaj7        
That the river  flowed right to my door 
Bm7              C#m7 
Making me just a little too free 
            F#m7          Amaj7   C#m7         Bm7 
But now the river doesn't seem to stop here anymore 

Amaj7                        C#m      A 
Hold me in your hands like a bunch of flowers 
Bm7                   Amaj7 
Set me moving to your sweetest song 
      D#m7        D#         C#m7                    
And I know what I think I've known all along 
C#m7                            Emaj7 
Lovin' you's the right thing to do 
Bm7              F#m7  Amaj7 
Lovin' you's the right thing 
Lovin' you's the right thing to do 
Is the right thing 

(Repeat C#m7 and Bm7 until over) 
Nothing you could ever do would turn me away from you 
I love you now and I love you now 
Even though you're ten thousand miles away 
I'll love you tomorrow as I love you today 
I'm in love babe 
I'm in love with you babe
