Beach Baby

I play the bass and I tabbed this out on the eight string bass. So you may need to adjust
for minors, sevenths and all that other stuff that I don't need to worry about. Actually,
this one will probably sound AWESOME once you get those adjusted notes in ther. It
actually sounds pretty serviceable already, if I do say so myself.

by First Class
[C] Do you remember back in [G] old L.A. (Oh, oh, [A] oh)
When everybody drove a [E] Chevrolet (Oh, oh, oh)
[F] Whatever happened to the [C] boy next door
The [D] sun-tanned, crew-cut, All-A[G]merican male?

[C] Beach baby, beach baby, [F] give me your hand
Give me [G] something that I can re[C]member
[F] Just like before we can [G] walk by the shore in the [C] moonlight
[G][A][B][D][E][F]
[C] Beach baby, beach baby, [F] there on the sand
