Key: Bb

8     8  -8  7  6
This mag-ic mo-ment
6  -6    -7    7  -8  8
So dif-f’rent and so new
8    8   -8 7 -8  7
Was like an-y oth-er
-6  7  8   -8   -8
Un-til I kissed you
8    8   -8  7    6
And then it hap-pened
6   -6  -7  7 -8   8
It took me by sur-prise
8   8   -8   7   -8  7   7
I knew that you felt it too
-6  7   8   -8  8    -8
By the look in your eyes

-6    6  -6 6 -6 7
Sweet-er than wine
-6    6  -6  6 -6   7    7
Soft-er than a sum-mer night
-8  7    -8  7   8  -8  7
Ev-‘ry-thing I want, I have
8     8 -8 7  -8   8   -8
When-ev-er I hold you tight

8    8  -8  7   6
This ma-gic mo-ment,
6      6    -6  -7    7   -8  8
While your lips are close to mine,
8     8   -87 -8  7
Will last for-ev-er,
7   8  -8    8  -8  8-8 8-8 7
For-ev-er, 'til the end of time

8-87-88 8-87-88-87
Oh.        Oh 

8-878-8
Oh
8     8  -8  7  6
This mag-ic mo-ment
6  -6    -7    7  -8  8
So dif-f’rent and so new
8    8   -8 7 -8  7
Was like an-y oth-er
-6  7  8   -8   -8
Un-til I kissed you
8    8   -8  7    6
And then it hap-pened
6   -6  -7  7 -8   8
It took me by sur-prise
8   8   -8   7   -8  7   7
I knew that you felt it too

By the look in your eyes

Sweet-er than wine

Soft-er than a sum-mer night

Ev-‘ry-thing I want, I have
8     8 -8 7  -8   8   -8
When-ev-er I hold you tight
