Verse 1:

C       Ebdim     C
Joe and Jane were always together said
C      Ebdim    C
Joe to Jane, "I love summer weather, so
G7
Let's go to that beautiful sea
G9
Follow along
     C                   G+
Just say you're with me!"

C   Ebdim      C
Any thing that Joe would suggest to her,
C          Ebdim  C
Jane would always think it was best for her.

G7                   Gb7
So he'd get his Ford.
G7
Holler, "All aboard -
D7            G7  G+
Gee I want to be."

Chorus:

       G7
By the sea, by the
By the beautiful sea
G+      C
You and I, you and I
Oh how happy we'll be

                       G7   Gb7 G7
When each wave comes a roll-ing in
        G7   Gb7G7
We will duck or swim
          C              C6
And we'll float and fool around the water

G7
Over and under and then up for air
G+    C
Pa is rich, Ma is rich,
       C          C7
so now what do we care?

F         Gbdim
I love to be beside
     Em              A9
Your side beside the sea beside
    D7       G7               C   FC
The seaside, by the beautiful sea.

Verse 2:

C       Ebdim   C
Joe was quite a sport on a Sunday then
C        Ebdim    C
He would eat gray lox on a Monday and
G7
Jane would lose her millionaire air
G9              C              G+
And go to work, marcelling hair

C     Ebdim  C
Ev'ry Sunday he'd leave his wife at home
C                Ebdim    C
And say, "It's a bus'ness honey
I've got to roam"
G7                      Gb7
Then he'd miss his train
G7
Get his Ford and Jane,
D7                  G7  G+
And say, "Come with me."
