Lyrics

If it’s (B)mag ic,

then why can’t (E)it be ev er (F#7)last ing,

like the (B9)sun that al ways (E)shines,

like the (A)po et’s end less (C#m9)rhyme,

like the (B9)gal ax ies in (E)time?

If it’s (B)pleas ing,

then why can’t (E)it be nev er (F#7)leav ing,

as like the (B9)day that nev er (E)fails,

like on (A)sea shores there are (C#m9)shells,

like the (B9)time that al ways (E)tells?

It (Am)holds (Ab)the key

(F#)to (Fmaj7)ev (Am)’ry heart

(Am)through (G)out the un i (F)verse.

It (Am)fills (Ab)you up

(F#)with (Fmaj7)out (Am)a bite

(Am)and (G)quench es ev ’ry (F)thirst.

So,

if it’s (B)spe cial,

then with it, (E)why aren’t we as (F#7)care ful

as mak ing (B9)sure we dress in (E)style,

pos ing (A)pic tures with a (C#m9)smile,

keep ing (B9)dan ger from a (E)child?

It (Am)holds (Ab)the key

(F#)to (Fmaj7)ev (Am)’ry heart

(Am)through (G)out the un i (F)verse.

It (Am)fills (Ab)you up

(F#)with (Fmaj7)out (Am)a bite

(Am)and (G)quench es ev ’ry (F)thirst.

So,

So

if it’s (B)mag ic,

why can’t we (E)make it ev er (F#7)last ing?

Like the (B9)life time of the (E)sun,

it will (A)leave no heart un (C#m9)done,

for there’s e (B11)nough for ev ’ry (E)one.

Oh,

(Am)oh.
