Verse:
Joe and Jane were al -ways to -geth -er,
Said Joe to Jane "I love sum -mer wea -ther,
So let's go to that beau -ti -ful sea
Fol -low a -long Say you're with me"
A -ny -thing that Joe would sug -gest to her
Jane would al -ways think it was best for her
So he'd get his Ford Hol -er "All a -board
Gee! I want to be:"
 
Chorus:
By the sea, by the sea By The Beau -ti -ful Sea
You and I, You and I Oh! how hap -py we'll be
When each wave comes a -roll -ing in
We will duck or swim And we'll float and fool -a -round the wa -ter
O -ver and un -der and then up for air
Pa is rich, Ma is rich, so now what do we care?
I love to be be -side your side, Be -side the sea,
Be -side the sea -side By The Beau -ti -ful Sea.
