Verse 1:

G       A#dim     G
Joe and Jane were always together said
G      A#dim    G
Joe to Jane, "I love summer weather, so
D7
Let's go to that beautiful sea
D9
Follow along
     G                   D+
Just say you're with me!"

G   A#dim      G
Any thing that Joe would suggest to her,
G          A#dim  G
Jane would always think it was best for her.

D7                   C#7
So he'd get his Ford.
D7
Holler, "All aboard -
A7            D7  D+
Gee I want to be."

Chorus:

       D7
By the sea, by the
By the beautiful sea
D+      G
You and I, you and I
Oh how happy we'll be

                       D7   C#7 D7
When each wave comes a roll-ing in
        D7   C#7D7
We will duck or swim
          G              G6
And we'll float and fool around the water

D7
Over and under and then up for air
D+    G
Pa is rich, Ma is rich,
       G          G7
so now what do we care?

C         C#dim
I love to be beside
     Bm              E9
Your side beside the sea beside
    A7       D7               G   CG
The seaside, by the beautiful sea.

Verse 2:

G       A#dim   G
Joe was quite a sport on a Sunday then
G        A#dim    G
He would eat gray lox on a Monday and
D7
Jane would lose her millionaire air
D9              G              D+
And go to work, marcelling hair

G     A#dim  G
Ev'ry Sunday he'd leave his wife at home
G                A#dim    G
And say, "It's a bus'ness honey
I've got to roam"
D7                      C#7
Then he'd miss his train
D7
Get his Ford and Jane,
A7                  D7  D+
And say, "Come with me."
