The old magician takes the stage
    A                         D  Dmaj7
His act does not improve with age
  Em7                      A
Observe the shabby hat and gloves
    Em7            A      Bm   Bm/A
The tired act that no-one loves
      Em7           A        [D]
There was a time he produced doves

  D                    Gmaj7
A mirror and a puff of smoke
    A                   D    Dmaj7
His mysteries are now a joke
    Em7                      A
His poor assistant black and blue
      Em7            A       Bm   Bm/A
She's tired of being sawn in two
      Em7            A      [D]
She's tired of being sawn in two

Hidden trapdoor, velvet cape
A                             D  Dmaj7
Still from death there's no escape
Em7                   A
Words of sympathy and tact
Em7       A        Bm   Bm/A
Only underline the fact
           Em7        A      [D]
Death is a lousy disappearing act
