[G] [C]
[Cm] [G] [Am]
[G] I've seen [C] the lights of gay [G] Broadway [Dm] Old [C] Market Street down by the Frisco [G] Bay
[D] I've strolled the Prado, [A] I've gambled [G] on the board
The
[D] [G] seven [C] wonders [Gm] of the world [G] I've seen And [C] many other places I [G] have been
[Bb] Take my [D] advice folks, [A] and [D] visit Beale [G] Street first
[D] [G] If Beale Street could talk, if Beale Street could [Bm] talk
Married men would have [G] to take their [D] beds and walk
[G] Except one or two [C] who never drink that [Eb] booze
And the blind [A] man on the corner, thinking of [Bb] you
[C] I'd rather be there than any place I know I'd [F] rather be there than any [D] place I [C] know
[Eb] [G] Gonna take the Sergeant [B] far [G] to make [C] me go
[F]
[C] [G] Now go to the river, [C]
maybe by and by
Go [F] to the river, [Dm] and there's a [C] reason why
Because [G] the river's wet, [G] and Beale Street's [B] dung on grass
[Dm] [C] [Dm] [C]
