VERSE 1:
[A] Sailin' away on the crest of a wave, its like [F#m] magic
[F] Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' and slidin', it's [Dm] magic
And [C#m] you, and your sweet [Bm] desire,
You took [C#m] me, [Bm] oh [C#m] oh, [D] higher and higher, [E] baby

CHORUS:
[A] It's a [F#m] livin' thing, [D] it's a [Bm] terrible [E] thing to [A] lose
It's a [F#m] given thing, [D] what a [Bm] terrible [E] thing to [A] lose

BREAK: [Gm] [A] [Gm] [A] // [E] [A] [E]

VERSE 2:
[A] Making believe this is what you've conceived, from your [F#m] worst day
[F] Moving in line when you look back in time, to your [Dm] first day
And [C#m] you, and your sweet [Bm] desire
You took [C#m] me, [Bm] oh [C#m] oh, higher and [D] higher, [E] baby

REPEAT CHORUS:

BREAK: [Gm] [D] // [E] [A] [E]

VERSE 3:
[A] Takin' a dive 'cos you can't halt the slide, floating down [F#m] stream
[F] So let her go don't start spoiling the show, it's a bad [Dm] dream
And [C#m] you, and your sweet [Bm] desire
You took [C#m] me, [Bm] oh- [C#m] oh, higher and [D] higher, [E] baby

REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
