Verse 1
(D major) 5, 6, a 5, 6, 7, 8.
BATHING BEAUTY ON THE BEACH.
BATHING BEAUTY SAY HELLO.
WHAT A CUTIE, WHAT A PEACH.
BATHING BEAUTY WATCH HER GO.
Meg, take 5.
Girls, take it one more time. (A major) (D major) (A major)
(D major) BATHING BEAUTY ON THE BEACH.
Very nice, Meg.
Do you think so, Mother?
Really?
You've come a long way
since the beginning of the season.
Does he agree?
It's (E minor) been three (G major) months.
(D major) He never (A major) comes to see the show.
Even a word (D major) from him, just one.
You may (E minor) get more than that.
He has (D major) been compos (A major) ing again,
late at night.
Not (D major) this cheap vaudeville trash.
Something glorious.
(G major) For me?
Continue to (D major) work hard.
Make yourself useful to him. (A major)
(G major) Mother. (D major) Patience, Gustav.
(A major) First I must (D major) find the stage manager,
my dressing room, the musical director.
Then we'll go look for our friend
and go see the island.
I'm sure he'll send
for you when he's ready.
Excuse me, miss, would you mind?
Heaven help me, could it be?
No, it couldn't possibly.
Sorry, do I?
Yes, I think you do.
Have we?
Go on, take a guess.
Wait, it can't be,
is it? Yes.
Oh, my god, I can't be (A major) lieve it's you.
(E minor) Look at you, Christine.
Regal as a queen and (F sharp minor) beau tiful.
(E minor) Meg, and you as well.
I could hardly tell it's you. (G major) (A major)
(D major) My dear old friend,
can't believe you're (A major) here.
Old friend, after all this time.
(B minor) So glad you (D major) came.
You look sublime.
(G major) You look the same.
My (E minor) sweet old friend,
never thought (D major) we'd meet, old friend.
Look at you, (A major) a star.
And you, a wife.
And (D major) isn't life a splendid thing?
And (E minor) here we are,
to see (A major) the sights and sing.
To sing?
And (D major) of course, as a treat for my son.
(A major) Meg, meet Gustav,
who hired you (D major) to sing here.
(C minor) You! It can't be you!
Is this a jest?
How can this be?
We've come to (F minor) work.
At whose request?
(C sharp major) The contract's here.
I want to see.
(C minor) Mike got the price.
It's rather high.
Why, it's ab (G major) surd.
(C minor) Yes, I know.
Inform (F minor) your boss (D major) that by the buy,
the fee goes up, or (C major) else we go.
My dear old friend,
(G major) here's how things appear.
Old friend, he who pays the bill (A minor) times two or
three (C major) be sure (F major) he will and handsomely.
And (D minor) dear old friend,
And now that we are (C major) clear,
(G major) old friend, (C major) that's all very (G major) well.
But till you're gone,
you'll (C major) wait upon my boss's whim.
Yes, your (D minor) boss.
And who is that?
(G major) It's him. (D minor)
(D major) Sorry, did I hear you (C major) right?
Here to sing tomorrow (A major) night.
(D major) I'm afraid there must be some mistake.
You can't be performing. Why?
(C major) Mainly, dear, because (D major) so am I.
I'm, fact, the star for heaven's sake.
What (E minor) are you to sing?
Just one little thing, an (F sharp minor) aria. (A major)
(E minor) Please, you needn't fret,
I'm sure you will get your (A major) due.
Him?
(C minor) That's what I said.
You work for him?
(G major) Now so (C minor) do you.
And my poor (G major) wife,
we thought him dead.
She'll be appalled.
Unless she knew. (C major) (G major)
(F minor) Darling, please, (G major) are you all (E minor) right?
me now, (G major) that music,
(B major) who (G major) was its creator? (D major) (C major)
(G major) Darling, please (F minor) don't (G major) squeal
so tight.
Something's going (D major) on here.
I'll (G major) deal with you later.
Did you (A major) know?
How (D major) could I know?
Why would they (A major) come?
Why won't they go?
(D major) My dear old friends,
come and meet your her (A major) oes
at Christmas.
Speaking as your host.
(B minor) As an ar (D major) tiste.
What a surprise.
(G major) To say the least.
Yes, (E minor) dear old friend,
that's a happy tear, (D major) old friend
I (A major) can't conceal,
try though I may, the way I (D major) feel
So I pretend, I'm sure it's (G major) clear,
to (A major) such a dear old (D major) friend
You mustn't (A major) stay!
Why (D major) would I leave?
(A major) Why are we here?
Don't play naive!
What (D major) dear old friends,
don't we all (A major) revere old friends?
Nothing has been (B minor) changed!
And never will!
(D major) Just re (G major) arranged!
And yet we're still such (E minor) grand old friends
Such devoted (D major) an d old friends
Words cannot sug (A major) gest what's
in my heart
And for the (D major) rest, why even start?
(A major) Your (D major) dear old friends
So much more than (A major) mere
old friends
Back again at (B minor) last
With everyone
(D major) Isn't this (G major) great?
Won't this be fun?
With (E minor) dear old friends
Utterly sincere (D major) old friends
(A major) Honey, break a leg
Madam, good day.
(Faug) Enjoy your (D major) stay.
Hope it extends.
So glad (E minor) you're here,
Our lovely (A major) dear old (D major) friend.
(A major) Old friend. (D major)
Gustav, Gustav, Gustav.
Must we always be chasing after
the boy?
I promise you when I find him...
No! I'll look for him.
Back to work!
A five, six, seven, eight!
(D major) Bathing Beauty on the beach.
Bathing Beauty say hello.
What a cutie, what a peach.
Bathing Beauty watch her go. you
