	        E7    A   E7/6  A    D9     A  E7/6  A   
That old black magic has me in its spell,  
  
E7    A   E7/6  A    D9        E7  Fdim E7  
That old black magic that you weave so well.  
  
     E7  Fdim E7         D9      E7 Fdim E7  
Those i - cy  fin - gers up and down my spine,  
  
     A6  Cdim E7/9          Cdim      A6   Cdim E7/9  
The same old  witch - craft when your eyes meet mine.  
  
  
E7    A  E7/6  A    D9     A   E7/6   A  
The same old tingle that I feel in - side,  
  
E7    A  E7/6  A      D9          E7  Fdim  E7  
And then that el - e - va - tor starts its ride.  
  
     D9 Bm7/5- E7    Bm7/5-  A9   Fdim F#m   F#m7/E  
And down and down I   go; round and round I  go  
  
D9     Dm6  Bbmaj7         Fdim          A    D9   A  
Like a leaf        that's caught in the tide.  
  
  
(Bridge:)  
  
Amaj7     F#m      F#m7/E                G#7  
I should stay away,       but what can I do?  
  
            C#7              F#7/6     
I hear your name and I'm a - flame.  
  
     D9                         Dm6  
A - flame with such a burning desire  
   
              Bm7/5-    Fdim          E7  
That only your kiss can put out the fire.  
  
  
(E7)  A    E7/6 A   D9  E7   A   E7/6  A  
For you're the lover I have wait - ed for,  
  
     A7  Em7   A7      Em7     Gdim D6   A7  
The mate that Fate had me cre - a - ted for.  
  
    D9         D6               Dm6  
And ev'ry time   your lips meet mine,  
   
         D9  Bm7/5- E7   Bm7/5-  A9  Fdim F#m    F#m7/E  
Darling, down and down I  go; round and round I  go  
  
D         D6             Dm6       Bm7/5-        
In a spin,   loving the spin I'm in  
  
           D9  Bm7/5- Dm6    E7     A  
Under that old black magic called love.
