Seaside Rendezvous - Queen

C
Seaside!  Whenever you stroll along with me
                                             G7
I'm merely contemplating what you feel inside
Dm
 Meanwhile I ask you to be my Clementine
                        C
You say you will if you could but you can't
F       G    C  Am          F       Em     Dm  C                      G
I love you madly!  Let my imagination run away with you gladly
     C                 B                       Asharp   A
A brand new angle, highly commendable
?G7   Dm                C
Seaside rendezvous

F
I feel so romantic, can we do it again?

Can we do it again sometime? (I'd like that!)
C7                                                            A      D7
Fantastic, c'est la vie mesdames et messieurs

 And at the peak of the season the Mediterranean

This time of year, it's so fashionable,

(instrumental)

I feel like dancing in the rain! Can I have a volunteer?
Dancing - what a damn jolly good idea!
It's such a jollification,  as a matter of fact, so tres charmant my dear
Underneath the moonlight together we'll sail across the sea Reminiscing every night,
Meantime - I ask you to be my valentine
You said you'd have to tell your daddy if you can -  I'll be your Valentino
We'll ride upon an omnibus and then the casino
Get a new facial, start a sensational seaside rendezvous
(so adorable)
Seaside rendezvous,   seaside rendezvous


Good Company - Queen

 Bb   Fdim   C   F


C7                                                                 F
Take good care of what you've got, my father said to me

              C7                                                F
 As he puffed his pipe and Baby B he dandled on his knee

                             F7               Bb   Db7             C7                    F                                
 Don't fool with fools who'll turn away, keep all good company


        C7           F                               F7             Bb           Db7
Ooh hoo, ooh hoo - Take care of those you call your own

         C7                          F
And keep good company


C7                                                     F
Soon I grew, and happy too, my very good friends and me

            C7                                             F
We'd play all day with Sally J., the girl from number four

         F      F7        Bb                  Db7
And very soon I begged her, Won't you keep me company

         C7            F              C7            F
Ooh hoo, ooh hoo, ooh hoo, ooh hoo

            F        F7       Bb    Db7           C7                       F
Come marry me forever more we'll be good company


Bb   Fdim   C   F


           D7                                       Gm           C7                                                      F     D7
Now marriage is an institution, sure - My wife and I, our needs and nothing more

             Gm7             Gm6            Eb            Gm                   Bbm                    Bmadd9 Bbm   A7
All my friends by a year by and by disappear, But we're safe enough behind         our    door


    C7                                                                          F
I flourished in my humble trade, my reputation grew

         C7                                                             F
The work devoured my waking hours, but when my time was through

                    F7      Bb          Db7           C7                F
Reward of all my efforts :  My own limited company


C7   F   C7   F  F    F7   Bb  Db7   C7   F

  F           F7         Bb    Db7       C7                   Bbm  Dm
I hardly noticed Sally as    we parted company


Gm7                    Gm6             Eb            Gm
All through the years, in the end it appears

                     Bbm                   Bmadd 9  Bm7  A7
There was never really anyone           but    me


C7                                                 F
Now I'm old, I puff my pipe but no-one's there to see

  C7                                             F
I ponder on the lesson of my life's insanity

                   F7          Bb   Db7                         C7                           F
Take care of those you call your own and keep good company

"The Ballad of Gilligan's Island" by George Wyle and Sherwood Shwartz



Just [Dm]sit right back and you'll [C] hear a tale
[Dm] tale of a fateful [C] trip
That [Dm] started from this [C] tropic port,
A-[Bb]-board this [C] tiny [Dm] ship
The [Dm] mate was a mighty [C] sailin' man,
The [Dm] skipper brave and [C] sure,
Five [Dm]passengers set [C]sail that day
For a [Bb]three-[C]hour [Dm]tour
[Bb]three-[C]hour [Dm]tour
The [Em] weather started [D]getting rough,
The [Em] tiny ship was [D] tossed
If [Em] not for the courage of the [D] fearless crew,
The [C] Minnow [D] would be [Em] lost,
The [C] Minnow [D] would be [Em]lost
The [Fm]ship's aground of the [Eb]shore
Of this un [Fm]charted desert [Eb] isle
With [Fm]Gilligan...
The [Eb]Skipper, too...
The [Fm] Millionaire...
And his [Eb] wife...
The [Fm]movie [Eb]star...
The [Fm]professor [Eb] and [Fm] Mary-[Eb] Ann
[Fm]Here on [Eb]Gilligan's [Fm]Isle!

White Christmas - Irving Berlin


C   Dm   C   (Adim  C) Dm    G7
I'm dreaming of     a  white Christmas
F             Dm             C    Dm G7
Just like the ones I used to know
-         C        C7          F        Fm
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
-  C    F            Am     Dm   G G7
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
C   Dm   C   (Adim  C) Dm    G7
I'm dreaming of     a  white Christmas
F          Dm               C 
With every Christmas card I write
F        C       C7        F      Fm
May your days be merry and bright
-       C  Am     Dm      G      C
And may all  your Christmases be white

Getting a souvenir or maybe a letter

I really flipped over the gray cashmere sweater

Freddy my love, Freddy my love, Freddy my love, Freddy my Lo-ve

Freddy you know, your absense makes me feel so blue
