[Verse 1]
Am G F Em Dm Am Dm
They do it down on camber sands, They do it at Waikiki (quick change)
C G F C F
Lazing about the beach all day, All night the crickets creepy (quick change)
E F C D/F#
Squinting faces at the sky, A Harrold Robbins paperback
E F C D/F#
Surfers drop their boards and dry, And everybody wants a hat
[Chorus]
(the F and G are passing chords about 16th each)
F G Am G F G Am G F
But behind the Chalet, My holiday's complete
G Am G F Em
And I feel like William Tell
Dm A# F G#6 G
Maid Marion on her tiptoed feet
G7 (or N.C.) C
Pulling mussels from the shell,
G F G#dim7 Am
Pulling mussels from the shell
[Verse 2]
Am G F Em Dm Am Dm
Shrinking in the sea so cold, Topless ladies look away
C G F C F
A he-man in a sudden shower, Shelters from the rain
E F C D/F#
You wish you had a motor boat, To pose around the harbor bar
E F C D/F#
And when the sun goes out to bed, You hook it up behind the car
[Chorus]
F G Am G F G Am G F
But behind the Chalet, My holiday's complete
G Am G F Em
And I feel like William Tell
Dm A# F G#6 G
Maid Marion on her tiptoed feet

Pulling mussels from the shell
[Verse 3]
Am G F Em Dm Am Dm
Two fat ladies window shop, Something for the mantelpiece
C G F C F
In for bingo all the nines, A panda for sweet little niece
E F C D/F#
The coach drivers stand about, Looking at a local map
E F C D/F#
About the boy he's gone away, Down to next door's caravan
[Chorus]
F G Am G F G Am G F
But behind the Chalet, My holiday's complete
G Am G F Em
And I feel like William Tell
Dm A# F G#6 G
Maid Marion on her tiptoed feet
G7 (or N.C.) C
Pulling mussels from the shell,
