/ / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /
Do you...
Verse 1:
C
Do you believe in magic
F
In a young girl's heart
C
How the music can free her
F C
Whenever it starts, and it's magic
F
If the music is groovy
C F
It makes you feel happy like an old time movie
Dm Em F Em
I'll tell you 'bout the magic, and it'll free your soul
G
But it's like tryin' to tell a stranger 'bout-a rock 'n' roll
Verse 2:
If you believe in magic
Don't bother to choose
If it's jug band music
Or rhythm and blues, just go and listen
It'll start with a smile
That won't wipe off your face, no matter how hard you try
Your feet start tappin' and you can't seem to find
How you got there so just blow your mind

(If you believe...)
Verse 3:
If you believe in magic
Come along with me
We'll dance until morning
'Til there's just you and me, and maybe
If the music is right
I'll meet you tomorrow, sort of late at night
And we'll go out dancin', baby, then you'll see
How the magic's in the music and the music's in me
Coda:
F
Yeah
C
Do you believe in magic, yeah
F * Em F Em
Believe in the magic of a young girl's soul
F * Em F Em
Believe in the magic of-a rock 'n' roll
F * Em F Em G7
Believe in the magic that can set you free, ah...
* guitar plays F; vocal harmonies imply F6 or Dm
F
Talkin' 'bout magic
(do you believe like I believe)
C
Do you believe in magic
(do you believe like I believe)
F
Do you believe, believe
(do you believe like I believe)
C
Do you believe in magic
(do you believe like I believe)
