[Intro] Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Gbm [Verse 1]

Fmaj7
It's raining on the beach

Fmaj7
She inches close but out of reach

Fmaj7
The waves look painted on

Gbm
Seagulls screaming

Fmaj7
The sea is warship grey

Fmaj7
It whispers 'Fool!' then slides away

Fmaj7
Black coastline slumbers on

Gbm
Seagulls screaming kiss her, kiss her

[Bridge 1]

E7                                 G6
And all the flags that flap on the pier

      C7                  E7
Spell why on earth do you wait

                                    G6
The fog hides much but one thing is clear

      Edim Bb7
She's nearer

Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Gbm [Verse 2]

Fmaj7
Dead deck chairs under shrouds

Fmaj7
And life belts gape like minstrel mouths

Fmaj7
Her hair still smells of salt

Gbm
Seagulls screaming kiss her, kiss her

Gbm
Kiss her, kiss her, kiss her, kiss her

[Refrain]

E7     Dbm(maj7) G6    Em A6(b5)
He who hesi--    tates is lost

[Bridge 2]

E/Gb
If you want her, you should tell her

E/Gb            G7
Take her by the hand

E/Gb
If you wait, November wins her

E/Gb           G7sus4 G7
She returns to sand

       Dm7#5/F      F
So get ahold of the girl

Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Gbm [Verse 3]

Fmaj7
I say I like your coat

Fmaj7
Her thank-you tugs my heart afloat

Fmaj7
I nearly didn't hear for

Gbm
Seagulls screaming kiss her, kiss her

[Refrain]

He who hesi--    tates is lost
