Midas Touch by Midnight Star
This song is composed in a 3 chord pattern. It’s important to use a Dm7 chord instead of a Dm chord here
because the phrasing of the melody usually begins on the minor 7th note of the scale (in this case,
note C). Bbmaj7 can be substituted for a more simple Bb chord if desired.
[Verse 1]
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
You say you're going through changes
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Every day it seems your life is up and down
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
And you say that you're lookin' for an answer
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Everywhere you look it seems you can't be found
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Like searchin', tryin' to find the rainbow
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
No one's ever found it, yet it's told to be
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
But if you're lookin' for a lover
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Everything you need, you can find right here with me
[Chorus 1]
Dm7 Bb
I've got the Midas Touch
C Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Everything I touch turns to gold, oh, sugar
Dm7 Bb
I've got the Midas Touch
C Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Baby, let me touch your body and your soul
[Verse 2]
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Now you've been trapped by love
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Someone takes your heart and then says goodbye
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
So you say that you'll never love another
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Tired of playin' games and that's the reason why
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
But now whenever we're together
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
There's a certain feelin' there, we both agree
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
And it's time that you've opened up to love
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
'Cause if you don't ever try, then baby, you may never see
[Chorus 2]
Dm7 Bb
I've got the Midas Touch
C Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Everything I touch turns to gold, Yeah, darlin
Dm7 Bb
I've got the Midas Touch
C Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Baby, let me touch your body and your soul, whoa!
[Bridge]
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Together you and I were meant to be
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
I'll be right beside whenever you need me
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
This love we have will never fade away
Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
You can count on me 'cause I'm here to stay
[Chorus 3]
Dm7 Bb
I've got the Midas Touch
C Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Everything I touch turns to gold, Yeah, darlin
Dm7 Bb
I've got the Midas Touch
C Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Baby, let me touch your body and your soul (Won't you do that for me)

I've got the Midas Touch

Everything I touch turns to gold, oh, sugar
C Dm7 Bbmaj7 C
Baby, let me touch your body and your soul, whoa!
