C                  G/B
Magic at midnight in Mel's Diner
  Am              G
Stumbling in from cloak and dagger
F                     C/E
His hand rests on the bench in the booth
          D/F#              G
While the other cradles her face
   C                                 G/B
Pretending they're friends when they look just like lovers
     Am              G                    F       C/E
From boardwalk bartenders to strangers on Sunset

Verse:
D                  A/C#
Magic at midnight in Mel's Diner
Bm             A
On table nine, playing in color
    G                 D/F#
She hides her leading lady smile
E7               A7
Behind the menu while she laughs
D                        A/C#
Coffee so sweet that the spoon stands in her cup
Bm                     Am7                 G              D/F#
Their waitress tearing up her script while eavesdropping
    E               A    B
And starts on her future bestseller

Pre-Chorus:

While the city's angels watch them from behind

Oh-oh-oh

She hit me between the eyes

I was just enjoying the ride that night
B          E
Sparks and static
B                          E
Give me just a little more magic
B                         E            F#
Anything you want you can have, it's alright

Verse:
D                    A/C#
Magic at midnight in Mel's Diner
Bm             A
Under a spell, twenty-four hour
 G                  D/F#
Holding her hand he dares at the dance
       E7         A7
As the forty-five serenades
D                         A/C#
Gliding with grace, intertwined right by the ball
      Bm                      A
While Cupid tries to park his car
                G           D/F#
But the valet's distracted
     Em                 A      B
He's stoned but wishing he was higher, oh

Pre-Chorus:
F#
While the moonlight asked the sunrise for the time
N.C.
Oh-oh-oh

B       E
Oh, my, my

She hit me between the eyes

I was just enjoying the ride that night
B          E
Sparks and static
B                          E
Give me just a little more magic
B                         E            F#       E
Anything you want you can have, it's alright

G#m             F#                     E      B/D#
Racing down the street to the house of Holly
    C#m7          F#     B       E       B       E
Its neon sign set in saphire
