Magic Time

Van Morrison

tom:

G              D         A    G
Don't lose the wonder in your eyes
      D                         A
I can see it right now when you smile
          G          Bm
Let me go back for a while
          G          Bm
Let me go back for a while
Bm      A     D
To that magic time

[Verse 2]

G               D         A        G
You can call it nostalgia, I don't mind
 D                         A
Standing on that windswept hillside
          G                   Bm
Listenin' to the church bells chime
          G                   Bm
Listenin' to the church bells chime
Bm      A     D     D7
In that magic time

[Chorus]

       G
Oh the road, it never ends
        D
Good to see you my old friend
     E7
Once again we'll sit right down
              A    A7
And share the wine

[Verse 3]

G              D         A    G
Shivers up and down my spine
   D               A
It's a feeling so divine
          G          Bm
Let me go back for a while
          G          Bm
Got to go back for a while
Bm      A      D    D7
To that magic time

[Solo]

G  D   A  G  D  A  G   Bm  G   Bm Bm  A  D

G              D         A    G
And we'll go back in your prime
D                A
The sun is gonna shine
           G          Bm
When we go back for a while

When we go back for a while

Don't lose the wonder in your eyes

It's right there when you smile

Got to go back for a while
