Do You Believe in Magic
John Sebastian, 1965· Songs Well-Known in America · p.81
Intro: Dm Em F Em Dm Em F
G C F
Do you believe in magic in a young girl's heart
C F
How the music can free her, whenever it starts
C F
And it's magic, if the music is groovy
C F
It makes you feel happy like an old-time movie
Dm Em F Em
I'll tell you about the magic, and it'll free your soul
G
But it's like trying to tell a stranger 'bout rock and roll
C F
If you believe in magic don't bother to choose
C F
If it's jug band music or rhythm and blues
C F
Just go and listen it'll start with a smile
C F
It won't wipe off your face no matter how hard you try
Dm Em F Em
Your feet start tapping and you can't seem to find
G
How you got there, so just blow your mind
Instrumental: F C Dm Em F Em G
C F
If you believe in magic, come along with me
C F
We'll dance until morning 'til there's just you and me
C F
And maybe, if the music is right
C F
I'll meet you tomorrow, sort of late at night
Dm Em F Em
And we'll go dancing, baby, then you'll see
G
How the magic's in the music and the music's in me
Outro:
F C
Yeah, do you believe in magic?
Dm Em F Em
Yeah, believe in the magic of a young girl's soul
Dm Em F Em
Believe in the magic of rock and roll
Dm Em F Em
Believe in the magic that can set you free
G F C
Ohh, talking 'bout magic. Do you believe in magic? Do you believe?
Do you believe like I believe? Do you believe like I believe?
