Intro 1

Verse 1

I don't know what color your eyes are, baby

But your hair is long and brown

Your legs are strong, and you're so, so long

And you don't come from this town

Pre-chorus 1

My head is full of magic, baby

And I can't share this with you

The feel I'm on a cross again, lately

But there's nothing to do with you

Chorus 1

I'm alive huh, huh, so alive

Interlude 1

Verse 2
Bb6 
Your  (B flat6) strut makes me crazy
Makes me see you more clearly
Oh, baby, now I can see you
Bb6 
 (B flat6) Wish  I could stop
Switch off the clock
Make it all happen for you

Chorus 2

I'm alive huh, huh, so alive

Interlude 2

Verse 3

I don't know what color your eyes are, baby

But your hair is long and brown

Your legs are strong, and you're so, so long

And you don't come from this town

Pre-chorus 2

My head is full of magic, baby

And I can't share this with you

The feel I'm on top again, baby

That's got everything to do with you

Chorus 3

I'm alive huh, huh, so alive

Accurately transcribed by the GuitarTuna team.

Barre chords ask a lot of the fretting hand. The barre course walks through hand position, pressure, and the cleanest way to land each shape. Practice barre chords

Most chord-change problems come from the strumming hand, not the fretting hand. The basic strumming course covers the patterns and timing that make any chord progression easier to play. Practice basic strumming

Even perfectly fretted chords sound wrong on an out-of-tune guitar. Get in tune in seconds, right in your browser, with the free online guitar tuner
