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
