[Intro]
E A F#m
[Verse 1]
E"Magic works Asimple". F#mThat's what I've Eheard
Think Eless of a Asentence, and F#mmore of a Eword
See, it's Asmall and all aBround, and it's Epatient, and it's C#mfair
It's a Abeauty never Abothered tAo tell you iBt's there
So Emagic works Asimple, F#mthat's what I'm Etold
Think C#mless of a Anew thing, and even Bless of something Eold
See, it's Aowned moment to Bmoment, kinda Ecalm and... kinda C#mnot
It's a Amarvel never F#mstartled, to hear people forBgot
[Chorus]
So Etry it C#mout! Don't Await for Enothin'
It's Athere, it's Esomethin', no you Adidn't lose Btouch
No, you Ejust got F#molder, with more G#mbummBers to Ashoulder
                     C#m                         A                  AmB﻿
But being older makes a fighter, that's why our shoulders all get wider
[Verse 2]
So Emagic works Asimple, yeah F#mthat's what they Esay
It Ehardly hides Aoff, in some F#mmagical waEy
No it Amoves by your Bmomentum, you oEnly gotta C#mstart
It's got a Abed up in your Ahead, but iAt lives down in yBour heart
Ohh Emagic works Asimple, we've F#mknown it all Ealong;
It'll C#mfind ya if you're Aweak, but it'll Bstay there if you're Estrong
Oh it Aknows it's second Bnature, but it Ewants to be the C#mfirst
It's Aeasy when it's F#measy, but it mostly needs your Bwork
[Chorus]
So Etry it F#mout! Don't Await for Enothin'
It's Athere, it's Esomethin', no you Adidn't lose Btouch
No, you Ejust got F#molder, with more G#mbummBers to Ashoulder
                            C#m                       A                AmB﻿       E  
But being older means you're stronger, and you can hold it so much longer.﻿

A A A B

It's a beauty never bothered to tell you it's there

E A F#m E

So magic works simple, that's what I'm told

C#m A B E

Think less of a new thing, and even less of something old

A B E C#m

See, it's owned moment to moment, kinda calm and... kinda not

A F#m B

It's a marvel never startled, to hear people forgot

[Chorus]

E C#m A E

So try it out! Don't wait for nothin'

A E A B

It's there, it's somethin', no you didn't lose touch

Ohh magic works simple, we've known it all along;

C#m A B E

It'll find ya if you're weak, but it'll stay there if you're strong

It's easy when it's easy, but it mostly needs your work
