Kirsty Maccoll - Hes on the beach

^BHe was just a friend of mine I'd ^F#run into from time to time L^G#mong before he moved away We u^Esed to share a taste for w^Bine Still I never k^F#new that he was sad back ^Ethen He s^Baid the ^Etime had^F# come for him t^Eo take^B a ^F#holiday

And he says it's b^Brilliant there There's something ^Ein the air And sunshine ev^Berywhere He's on the b^F#each I know he's c^Bhanged somehow He sends those p^Eostcards now I'm not sure w^Bhere he is but he's out of r^F#each

W^Bhen he called me up one day And s^F#aid that he was going away I th^G#mought he meant a week in France And n^Eot twelve thousand miles to Sydney ^BBay Still he had to t^F#ake his chances ^E He s^Baid the ^Etime had^F# come for him t^Eo make^B a m^F#ove away

And he says it's b^Brilliant there There's something i^En the air And sunshine e^Bverywhere He's on the b^F#each I know he's c^Bhanged somehow He writes those p^Eostcards now He's on his o^D#wn again And he's out of r^Beach (my baby gets it on the b^D#each)

And I don't b^G#mlame him L^Eeaving was the^F# best thing he coul^D#d do He longed for ch^G#manges ^EI just hope he's happy When he d^F#oes the things he t^Ehinks he has t^C#o do

Yes he tries but he's a little bit ^Ehard on ^Bhims^Eel^F#f Somehow he's t^Erying to be someone^B el^Ese^F#

And he says, he says, he says it's ^Bbrilliant there There's something ^Ein the air And sunshine e^Bverywhere He's on the b^Beach I know he's ch^Banged somehow It's in his pos^Etcards now He's on his o^D#wn again So far out of r^F#each

And he says it's b^Brilliant there There's something ^Ein the air And sunshine e^Bverywhere He's on the b^F#each I know he's c^Bhanged somehow It's in his p^Eostcards now He's in Aust^D#ralia So far out of r^F#each B E B A F# ... And he says it's brilliant there
