 I, can turn a grey sky blue,

And I can make it rain, when-ever I want it to.
    C5                    F5      C5
Oh, I can build a castle, from a single grain of sand,

And I can make a ship sail, uh, on dry land.

And I can buy any-thing, that money can buy.

 I can make the season change, just by wavin' my hand.
