     G           Bm        C             D
It's magic, it's magic the way we got together,
       G       Bm             C    D
There's magic around us in the air
    Bm          Em     C         D
It's magic, it's magic, no not at random
         C                D          G
And there must be a higher power somewhere


C                      Bm 
I know that magic is an easy word to condemn,
   C                Bm                 C        D
But I've tried other girls and I wasn't made for them,
     C            Bm           C                    D
And I knew it from afar in that lonely rock and roll bar
          C                D         G
That there must be a higher power somewhere Go


    G           Bm        C            D
It's magic, it's magic the way we got together
    G        Bm           C      D
It's magic as if it was ordained
    Bm          Em     C         D
It's magic, it's magic, no not by chance,
         C                D         G
And there must be a higher power I'm saying


C                      Bm
I know that magic is an easy word to abuse
   C                Bm             C           D
But I've tried other words but what words can I use?
     C                       Bm       C             D
And I knew it from that first kiss, so stingy and so spare
          C                D          G
That there must be a higher power somewhere


    G           Bm        C             D
It's magic, it's magic the way we got together
    G           Bm            C      D
It's magic, it's justice, it's grace
    Bm          Em     C         D
It's magic, it's magic, no not at random
         C                D          G
And there must be a higher power some place


C                          Bm
They say that magic and the science world collide
   C               Bm                    C         D
But Einstein saw me looking at her and he joined my side
     C                 Bm      C             D
And I knew how it would be, the way she hated me
         C                D          G
And there must be a higher power somewhere


    G           Bm        C             D
It's magic, it's magic the way we got together
    G           Bm            C     D
It's magic, it's freedom, it's fair
    Bm          Em    C         D
It's magic, it's magic no not at random
         C                D          G
And there must be a higher power somewhere

English Translation

It's magic, it's magic -- the way we got together,
There's magic around us in the air;
It's magic, it's magic -- no, not by chance
And there must be a higher power somewhere

It's magic, it's magic -- the way we got together
It's magic as if it was ordained;
It's magic, it's magic no, not at random
And there must be a higher power I'm sayin'

I know that magic is an easy word to condemn,
But I've been with other girls and I wasn't made for them,
And I knew it from that first kiss,
So stingy and so spare
That there must be a higher power someplace

Some say that magic and the science world collide,
But Einstein saw me look at her and he joined my side
And I knew it from afar, in the lonely rock 'n' roll bar
That there must be a higher power somewhere

It's magic, it's magic the way we got together
It's magic, it's freedom, it's fair
It's magic, it's magic -- no, not at random
And there must be a higher power somewhere

Lyrics

Well, sometimes life don't seem fair
A lousy circumstance
That things happen just at random
With tragedy by chance

That sometimes I get sort of scared
That this is how things really be
But there must be a higher power
Cause she was made for me

It's magic, it's magic the way we go together,
It's magic around us in the air
It's magic, it's magic, no not by chance
And there must be a higher power somewhere

I know that magic is an easy thing to say
But I've tried other girls and they weren't made my way
And I knew it, I just knew it from when I first saw her frosted hair
That there must be a higher power somewhere

It's magic, it's magic the way we go together
It's magic around us in the air
It's magic, it's magic, no not at random
And there must be a higher power somewhere

I know that magic is an easy word to select
But I've tried other girls and things were not perfect
And I knew it from that first kiss, so stingy and so spare
That there must be a higher power somewhere

It's magic, it's magic the way we go together
It's magic around us in the air
It's magic, it's magic, no not at random
And there must be a higher power somewhere

Lyrics

Well it's magic, it's magic the way we got together,
It's magic around us in the air
It's magic, it's magic, no not at random
And there must be a higher power somewhere

I know that magic is an easy word to select
But I've been with other girls and things weren't quite perfect
And I knew, I just knew it when I first saw her brush her hair
That there must be a higher power somewhere

Well it's magic, it's magic the way we got together
It's magic as if it was ordained
It's magic, it's magic, no not at random
And there must be a higher power I'm saying

They say that magic is an easy word to abuse
Well but I've tried other words and what word can I use?
And I knew it from afar in that lonely rock and roll bar
That there must be a higher power somewhere

It's magic, it's magic the way we got together
It's magic, it's freedom, it's grace
It's magic, it's magic, no not by chance
And there must be a higher power some place

It's magic, it's magic the way we got together

It's magic, it's magic the way we got together,
There's magic around us in the air
It's magic, not at random
There must be a higher power somewhere

It's magic, it's magic the way we got together
Magic as if it was ordained
Magic, not by chance,
And there must be a higher power I'm saying

I know that magic is too easy a word to select
But I've been other girls and things weren't quite perfect
And I knew it from that first kiss so stingy and so spare
That there must be a higher power somewhere

The way she meant for me
And there must be a higher power somewhere

It's magic, it's magic the way we got together
It's magic, it's freedom, it's fair
It's magic, not by chance
And there must be a higher power somewhere

I've heard that magic and the science world collide
Yeah but Einstein saw me looking at her and he joined my side
And I knew it from afar
In that lonely rock and roll bar
That there must be a higher power somewhere

It's magic, it's magic the way we got together
It's magic, it's freedom, it's fair
It's magic, no not at random
And there must be a higher power somewhere
