Intro: A7M E7/9+ A7M E7/9+ A7M E7/9+ A7M E7/9+ 

          A   E7/13  A    D9     A  E7/13  A  
That old black magic has me in its spell 
E7    A   E7/13  A    D9        E7  Fdim E7 
That old black magic that you weave so well 
     E7  Fdim E7      D9      E7 Fdim E7 
Those icy     fingers up and down my spine 
     A6  Cdim E7/9          Cdim      A6   Cdim E7/9 
The same old  witchcraft when your eyes meet mine 
E7    A  E7/13  A    D9     A   E7/13   A 
The same old tingle that I feel    inside 
E7    A  E7/13  A   D9    E7  Fdim  E7 
And then that elevator starts its ride 
     D9 Bm5-/7 E7    Bm5-/7  A9   Fdim F#m   F#m7/E 
And down and down I   go; round and round I  go 
D9     Dm6  Bb7M         Fdim          A  D9 A 
Like a leaf      that's caught in the tide 

Bridge 
A7M       F#m      F#m7/E                G#7 
I should stay away,       but what can I do 
            C#7              F#7/13    
I hear your name and I'm a flame 
     D9                         Dm6 
A flame with such a burning desire 
              Bm5-/7    Fdim          E7 
That only your kiss can put out the fire 
E7    A    E7/13 A   D9  E7   A E7/13  A 
For you're the lover I have waited   for 
     A7  Em7   A7      Em7   Gdim D6   A7 
The mate that Fate had me created   for 
    D9         D6               Dm6 
And ev'ry time   your lips meet mine 
         D9  Bm5-/7 E7   Bm5-/7  A9  Fdim F#m    F#m7/E 
Darling, down and down I  go; round and round I  go 
D         D6             Dm6       Bm5-/7       
In a spin,   loving the spin I'm in 
           D9  Bm5-/7 Dm6    E7     A 
Under that old black magic called love
