1st VERSE:
"I never believed in things that I couldn't see
I said if I can't feel it then how can it be
No, no magic could happen to me
And then I saw you, I couldn't believe it,

You took my heart, I couldn't retrieve it,
Said to myself, what's it all about
Now I know there can be no doubt"

CHORUS(Em and DMaj Chords with the same rythm as verse parts):

"You can do magic
You can have anything that you desire
Magic, and you know
You're the one who can put out the fire"

POST-CHORUS(Same chords and rythm):

"You know darn well
When you cast your spell
~~~~~~~~

e|——————-19p15——–|

you will get your way
When you hypnotize
~~~~~~~~~~~

e|—————-15p12———–|

with your eyes
A heart of stone can turn to clay".
~~~~~~~~~

e|——————————5h7———|

(And then, this is heard during the "doo-doos" part; each note

And when the night it gets so cold,
When I can't sleep

Again you come to me
I hold you tight, the rain disappears
Who would believe it
With a word you dry my tears"
