F+ Am
There must have been magic

C F+
The night that we met

Am Em
If I hadn't stopped you

G Dm G
I'd always regret


F+ Am
A few minutes later
C F+
You'd have been out that door
Am Em
And I'd have been lonely
G Dm
For ever more
G C
For ever more



F+ Cmaj7
Oh what made us do it
F+ Cmaj7
Under what holy spell
F+ Cmaj7
Nature's mother knew it
G
Only too well


F+ Am
She reached out her fingers
C F+
To point at the sky
Am Em
Leaving me helpless
G Dm G
Not knowing why

F+ Am
And this is the hour
C F+
That they turn out the light
Am Em
Nothing but memories
G Dm
Burning so bright
G C
Burning so bright

F+ Cmaj7
Oh what made us do it
F+ Cmaj7
Under what holy spell
F+ Am
Nature's mother knew it
G
Only too well

F+ Am
There must have been magic
C F+
The night that we met
Am Em
If I hadn't stopped you
G Dm
I'd always regret
G C
I'd always regret

F+ Am
There must have been magic
F+ Am
There must have been magic
F+ Am F+ Cmaj7 (X4)
There must have been magic..........The night that we met
