[Verse]
Em B7
Of all the boys I've known and I've known some
Em B7
Until I first met you I was lonesome
Em Am
And when you came in sight, dear, my heart grew light
Em B7
And this old world seemed new to me
Em B7
You're really swell, I have to admit you
Em B7
Deserve expressions that really fit you
Em Am
And so I've racked my brain hoping to explain
B7
All the things that you do to me
[Refrain]
Em
Bei mir bist du schön, please let me explain
B7 Em B7
'Bei mir bist du schön' means you're grand
Em
Bei mir bist du schön, again I'll explain
B7 Em
It means you're the fairest in the land
[Post-Chorus]
Am Em
I could say 'bella, bella' even 'sehr wünderbar'
Am B7
Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are
Em
I've tried to explain, 'bei mir bist du schön'
B7 Em B7
So kiss me and say you understand
[Refrain]
Em
Bei mir bist du schön
You've heard it all before but let me try to explain
B7 Em B7
'Bei mir bist du schön' means that you're grand
Em
'Bei mir bist du schön,' it's such an old refrain
B7 Em
And yet I should explain, it means I am begging for your hand
[Post-Chorus]
Am Em
I could say 'bella, bella' even 'sehr wünderbar'
Am B7
Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are
