D
They told me the streets were all paved with gold,
                                                 Bm
but these dirty sidewalks are gray, and concrete cold.
     F
They said neon lights were a beautiful sight,
                                                Bb    D
but how about the one blinking, in my room, all night?

CHORUS:
D               Bm   Em    Am         D
And where's the mag..ic in this magic town?
            Bm   Em        Am            D
Where's the good life they said could be found?
            Bm   Em    Am          C               D
Where's the mag..ic to make all my big dreams come true?
        D                       D7
I gotta find it, girl, before I send for you...

#2.
D 
They said in this town you get rich in no time.
                                       Bm
But here I am, and I'm down to my last dime.
  F          
I just don't know why I bother to try, when nobody here 
                            Bb  D
gives a hang, if I live, or die.

CHORUS:
D               Bm   Em    Am         D
And where's the mag..ic in this magic town?
            Bm   Em        Am            D
Where's the good life they said could be found?
            Bm   Em    Am          C               D
Where's the mag..ic to make all my big dreams come true?
        D                       D7
I gotta find it, girl, before I send for you...

    D                       D7                        D
I'm gonna find it, girl, if it can be found, before I bring
    D7             G     D7         
you to, this magic town..
