Electric Light Orchestra - Livin' Thing
C Am
Sailin' away on the crest of a wave, it's like magic
Ab Fm
Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' & slidin', it's magic
Em Dm
And you, and your sweet desire,
Em Dm Em F G
You took me, oh-oh, higher and higher, baby
Chorus:
C Am F
It's a livin' thing,
D7 G+ C
It's a terrible thing to lose
Am F
It's a given thing
D7 G+ C
What a terrible thing to lose.
Bbm F G
(Taking a dive) (halt the slide)
Repeat chords for remaining verses
Making believe this is what you've conceived
From your worst day,
Moving in line when you look back in time
To your first day
Chorus
Chorus
Takin' a dive 'cos you can't halt the slide
Floating downstream,
So let her go don't start spoiling the show
It's a bad dream
