Tom: C#m

A Am E


E
Flying around a corner
E
Scrutinizing all the screens
A
That you're on, well naturally
A
I want to know your secret

E
You figured out a something
E
That you are now expressing
A
Through manipulation
A
Of a master degree


[Chorus]
B         B       A# A
Just with sleight of hand
C#m                         F#
You (you!) make (make!) the whole room vanish
A            Am
Yeah I study good magicians

E
Twentieth paragraph I’m
E
Trying to entertain a
A
Deeper understanding
A7
Of whatever it is you’re on

E
An absolute basket case
E
In unassuming basket casing
A
I think this late in life
A7
I want to learn to do the same


[Chorus]
B          B      A# A
Just with sleight of hand
C#m                         F#
You (you!) make (make!) the whole room vanish
A            Am
Yeah I study good magicians

E
If i tried to do the same tricks
                    A
I would end up with trix cereal’s mascot suffocated in a hat
    E
And half a torso cut in half
      E
From messing the box routine up bad
A
That, the rabbit - and a non-comedic lawsuit on top of that


[Chorus]
 B        B       A# A
Just with sleight of hand
C#m                         F#
You (you!) make (make!) the whole room vanish
A            Am
Yeah I study good magicians


[outro]
B       B    A#  A
Take my greatest fear
C#m     F#
Make it disappear
B      B  A# A        E
Yeah I study good magicians
