FAll my life I've been lGooking for the magicC, I've been loFoking for the magic F  
FFantasize on a siGlly little tragicC, I've been loFoking for the magic, Fin C/Emy eDmyes
BbOh oh Coh, Flooking, Bbfor.... the mCagic in my eFyes..., in my eGmyes, baby in my eFyes
FOnly child is a sGilly little raggedC, she's been lFooking for for the the magicF  
FStay awhile till the cGity is a desert, Cshe's been loFoking for the treasure, Fin C/Emy eDmyes
BbOh oh Coh, Flooking, Bbfor.... the mCagic in my eFyes..., baby in my eGmyes, baby in my eFyes
Because a phGmotograph is like an hourglass out of tFime
And then I Gmnever laughed because I never had no tFime
BbOh oh Coh, Flooking, Bbfor.... the mCagic in my eFyes..., in my eGmyes, baby in your eFyes
EGmyes, baby in your eFyes, in your eGmyes, baby in my eFyes (repeat, fade)
Note that in the live version, he seems to use "in your eyes" throughout, which makes more sense to me.
