[B] Sailin' away on the crest of a wave, its like [Abm] magic
[G] Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' and slidin', it's [Em] magic
And [Ebm] you, and your sweet [Dbm] desire,
You took [Ebm] me, [Dbm] oh [Ebm] oh, [E] higher and higher, [Gb] baby

CHORUS:
[B] It's a [Abm] livin' thing, [E] it's a [Dbm] terrible [Gb] thing to [B] lose

[B] Takin' a dive 'cos you can't halt the slide, floating down [Abm] stream

You took [Ebm] me, [Dbm] oh- [Ebm] oh, higher and [E] higher, [Gb] baby
