Word order - really

I know that it's fairly a simple question for native speakers but I need to get the answer to it very badly. It concerns word order.

... it would be really wonderful...
... it would really be wonderful...

Both of them sound good to me but since I'm not a native speaker of English I cannot base myself on such judgements.

base oneself on judgments - does it make sense?

Both are correct.

1. It would be wonderful.
2. It would be really wonderful. (emphasizes "wonderful")
3. It would really be wonderful. (almost identical in meaning to [2], but has a more persuading tone)
