Magic Position Chords

Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

[Main Riff] Dm - F - C - G

It's wonderful what a smile can hide

If the teeth shine right and it's nice and wide

It's so magical what you can keep inside

And if you bury it deep no one can find a thing, n

So come on now, open wide, open up now.

Don't you think i's time

To look back at that boy on his way to school

Such a heavy heart, such a heavy jewel

Hiding something that one day he'll sell

But now if no one shows, no one tells a thing, no

So come on love, open wide, open up now

Don't you think it's time

Now after all these years, you are at last opening

Was it worth all that war, just to win?

So caught up in the speed of the days in your sin

Don't forget how the story begins no

Don't forget now

Now I'm seeing all your lovers and enemies

They've been turning their keys so full of need

All trying to see that jewel you keep

What makes it shine, what makes it mine?

But I don't care

Just come on now, open wide

Open up now

There's so much love for what you'll find

But what will you find?

Now after all these years, you are at last opening

Was it worth all that war, just to win?

If it was, can you take me back to where it begins?

Come and take me back to where it begins

Come and take me back to where it begins

Come on, open wide and let some light in

Let us in

Let us in
