         A#             F            A#
I wish I had a pair of little magic glasses
              A#              F               A#    A#7
That I could see the future just by looking through
     D#                                 A#
Then I could know what road tomorrow's gonna take me down
    A#                                                  F
And I could see if I'll be walking down that road with you

         A#             F             A#
I would keep my little magic glasses hidden
         A#        F                A# A#7
I would let nobody else see what I see
         D#                                A#
And everyone would want to know how I can know what lies ahead
             A#                         F             A# A#7
And they'll wonder when I say tomorrow I see you with me

Chorus:
         D#            G#             D#
But if I see into the future that I'm on the road alone
               D#            G#               F
And where the way was sunny now there's only rain

      A#            D#      A#
I'll put them in a box and seal it with a lock
          A#                          F           A#
And I'll never take my little magic glasses out again
        A#           D#       A#
I will put them in a box and seal it with a lock
          A#                          F           A#
And I'll never take my little magic glasses out again
 A#  D#  A#
MMM mmm mmm
          A#                          F          A#
And I'll never take my little magic glasses out again
 A#  D#  A#
MMM mmm mmm
