  Subject: CRD Maria McKee's "Panic Beach"

  

  

  Here's my attempt at Maria McKee's "Panic Beach" off her

  first solo CD.  Some of the chords maybe off (Bm7 instead of Bm

  for example) but I think its pretty close.  Let me know of any problems

  Listen to the song for specific timing (ie A --> Asus4)

  Capo 3rd fret - chords written as if first position (ie A=C)

  

  Intro  A     Asus4 A

  

  *Verse 1*

  

  A                     Asus4           A

  Well the dog act got drunk again last night

  

          F#m                   D               Bm

  And the King and Quenn of the waltz clog team had another fight

  

           D                 A

  King was careless with his tango grip 

  

          E                  Bm

  Nearly lost his queen in a dip

  

              D                           A

  Yeah, she righted herself, straightened out her slip

  

      E

  and kicked him in the shin

  

  *Verse 2*

  

       A                          Asus4        A

  Miss Billy Begonia thinks she's hit the big time

  

              F#m                    D

  She wants a thick red rug from the dressing room door

  

          Bm

  To the frontline of the footlights

  

              D                 A

  She's got a sky blue swandown powder puff

  

        E                   Bm

  and a corset to keep her spirts up

  

        D                    A

  Yeah, she don't sweat, she sours and melts

  

        E

  Like ice cream in the sun

  

            Bm      

  She'll be out of a job at the end of this

  

  

  D/C#       D

  Three week run

  

  *Chorus*

  

  D           A                      D    Dsus2          

  We're havin fun out here, on Panic Beach

  

                     A                           D     Dsus2

  All the Vaudeville bums are here, out on Panic Beach

  

                             F#m

  I hear them talk about the palace

  

           Bm                  D

  But its so far out of reach

  

                A

  So I'll do my time

  

               E             A      A/B   A/C#   D

  Then say goodbye to Panic Beach

  

                        A   A/B   A/C#    D

  Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

  

  

  *Verse 3 - same chords has verse 2*

  

  The visionary theatric strikes a juggler's seesan tune

  and the dying swan pirouettes and fawns

  by the light of the street lamp moon

  When my trunk is filled with taffeta

  Those big time hacks won't laugh at us

  When my taps are mado of silver

  I can make the kiddies thrill for just one buck and wing

  Yeah, I will nail them to my heel and the pnaic choir sings

  

  *Chorus II - same chords as Chorus*

  

  Here comes a lucky little thing to panic beach

  yeah, you know we got to teach him how to sing

  While we're stuck on panic beach

  Ah, the way ya hear em say it

  Doesn't seem so out of reach 

  So I'll do my time 

  Then say goodbye to Panic Beach

  Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

  

  *Little waltzy instrumental not completely figured out - I just goof around on

  the D A  E  Bm, but its not right*

  

  

  

  *Verse 4 - same chords as verse 2 except no chord over first line - pick up

  with F#m in second line*

  Well the landlord gets a free show, every Saturday at six

  Sometimes on Sunday all dependin on whatever kind of 

  mood he's in

  I keep his glass filled up with sherry 

  And sing him all his favorite songs

  If a tear comes to his eye, he may let

  A month go by before he takes away my key

  Oh, that sherry, starts to taste real good to me

  

  Hey mam look at me on panic beach

  I may be hungry but my rent is free up on panic beach

  yeah, I can almost see the palace

  No longer out of reach

  So I'll do my time

  Then say goodbye to Panic Beach

  Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

  

  Fade on A   D
