Lifes A Beach

"Life's A Beach" by The Whitlams.

Transcribed by Daniel Meijer <dm@zip.com.au>

The main rhythm part is fairly simple. In the bridge, play <pattern 1>

where indicated to reprouce the simultaneous piano and bass part, which I

can't describe with a chord name. <NC> indicates no chord.

 

Burning all the photos,

sorting through the clothes

You bought this new for me

and now it's full of holes

Remember babytalk in the morning

What's the hurry my girl?

You don't need any coffee

if you take the day off school

We're all over

and I'm all over town

We've got work here

tearing it down

You know it's quicker packing for a holiday

'cause I'd see these things again

I loved you in this T-shirt of mine

You can have it - it says "Life's A Beach"

There's a beach umbrella

Couple lying in the sun

And for once in my life

it's not the people from the suburbs

It's me's got it wrong

 

On through the evening and into the dawn

Am G F <pattern 1>

Journey me, journey me

<pattern 1>

Journey me, journey me

<NC>

where love keeps on.

 

Burning all the photos

They have a habit of mocking a single man

I'm keeping the first one

We're not even holding hands

We're all over

and I'm all over town

We've got work here

tearing it down

There's a beach umbrella

Couple lying in the sun

And for once in my life

it's not the people from the suburbs

It's me's got it wrong...
