Brighton Beach
guitar chords lyrics
Intro
Cadd9 G Cadd9 G
Verse 1
Cadd9 G
I remember when you were only seventeen
Cadd9 G
You were the finest girl that my eyes had ever seen
Em C
I guess you found it hard to simply just ignore
Em C D
This scruffy beat up working class teenage troubadour
G D Em
C
So we fell in love and I toured your heart with my out of tune guitar
G D Em
C
You were wonderful you were mystical and the envy of all of my friends
G D C G
Seems like only yesterday under the stars on Brighton Beach
Verse 2
Cadd9 G
Oh what a time it was what a time to be alive
Cadd9 G
Remember Janice and Jimmy Kennedy and King how they cried
Em C
I sang to you the songs of Ramblin' Jack
Em C D
You were Greta Garbo and I was Karolac
G D Em
C
And we played so hard and we loved so hard seemed we never ever slept
G D Em
They were crazy days they were wonderful days and I loved you with all of my
C
heart
G D C G
Seems like only yesterday under the stars on Brighton Beach
Bridge
Em C
Your daddy had plans that did not include me
Em C
And he won't stay away from your door
Em C
And I dreamed how I dreamed I could steal you away
Am D
To some far off distant shore
Verse 3
Cadd9 G
Then early one morning I awoke to find you gone
Cadd9 G
You wrote 'I love you baby but it's time for me to move on'
Em C
And so my teenage heart laid scattered on the floor
Em C D
I swear to God I could not have loved you anymore
G D
And as I sit here tonight playing with my kids wondering
Em C
Where you are in this world
G D Em
C
Did you find your man are you happy now do you ever stop and think about me
G D C G
How I long for yesterday under the stars on Brighton Beach
Tabbed by Tony Coxill.
