Chords

[Intro] C F G x2 [Verse 1]
     C            Dm         G
Everybody needs a by the sea affair

          C                 Dm               G
Where you get the urge from something in the air

       Am           Em           Am             Em
Helter Skelter on a mat, Kiss me Quick is on my hat

        Am           Em                F    G
And you do it on the ghost train for a dare
[Chorus]
        C        F             C     F
Wishing you were here, same as every year

          C      Am             F     G
Cause our summer madness is too short

        C        F               C          F
Wishing you were here, where the sunshine's near

      C         Am            F      G
Is it true that wishes can be bought?
[Verse 2]
     C              Dm               G
Everybody needs the moonlight on the beach

          C                Dm               G
Where the water's cold and no one hears you screech

        Am            Em             Am              Em
Getting buried in the sand, what you holding in your hand?

       Am              Em             F     G
Let it go or else I'll keep it out of reach
[Chorus]
        C        F             C     F
Wishing you were here, same as every year

          C      Am             F     G
Cause our summer madness is too short

        C        F               C          F
Wishing you were here, where the sunshine's near

      C         Am            F      G
Is it true that wishes can be bought?
[Middle 8]
         Am                   Em
The last night you dressed to kill

         Am                 Em
Will you write? You say you will

          F          Dm    G
Sometimes hopes just drift away
[Verse 3]
     C             Dm         G
Everybody needs to have a sea romance

         C                 Dm              G
When the world around just doesn't stand a chance

      Am                  Em            Am                Em
Candy floss stuck on your nose and your donkey's name was Rose

            Am                Em           F     G
What's this cheek to cheek in every single dance?
[Chorus]
        C        F             C     F
Wishing you were here, same as every year

          C      Am             F      G
Cause our summer madness is too short

        C        F               C          F
Wishing you were here, where the sunshine's near

      C         Am            F       G
Is it true that wishes can be bought?
[Outro] C F G x2 C
