C
When I first saw her
She looked alright,
Second time that I saw her
She looked outta sight.
And I said,
F
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
Bb F
And I feel alright,
C
Yes, I feel alright.
She got all the angles,
So directly applied.
And when I see her,
I have to cry,
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
And I feel alright,
Yeah, I feel alright.
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
And I feel alright,
And I feel alright.

I'd like to suggest dropping this a key to B, so that it becomes:
B
When I first saw her
she looked alright
second time I saw her
she looked out of sight, and I said
E
You're lookin' fine
you're lookin' fine
you're lookin' fine
D
And I feel alright
A
Yes I feel alright.
The rest of the song follows that same progression.
When in B, the riff being played is B, B, D#, B, E (hammered on from
the D#), B, F, F#, and then repeats. I find it easiest to play this on the
7th fret because the frets aren't spaced as far apart, so it allows you
to hold the B note on the 6th string, 7th fret with your 2nd finger,
while grabbing the D# (5th string) with the index finger, the E (5th
string) with your ring finger, and the F and F# (5th string) with your
pinky. This allows no break in sound on the B note, the break is more
subtle.
When it drops to E, I play the riff in open E:
E, E (open 6th string), G# (6th string, 4th fret), open E (6th string),
A (either open 5th string, dampening the 6th string, or just playing
the 5th fret on the 6th string), E (open 6th string), A#, B (either the
1st and 2nd frets on the 5th string, or the 6th and 7th frets of the
6th string), and repeat. No riff on D and A chords.
