[Intro 1]
[Am][E][Am][A][E]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
All off to Brighton
in [E]a c[Am]harabanc
Albert played his banjo and [E]how we sang
The [D]beer was expensive but
the [A]laughter was free
Oh [B]how we do love [E]to all be

[Verse 2]
beside the sea.
[A]Albert [Am]had a cousin named Marj[E]orie
And [Am]I had been noticing
that she had [E]noticed me
I [D]quickly de[F]cided [A]if she didn't [F#]mind it
I [B]would spend the day [E]in
her gay com[A]pany
[Am]

[Verse 3]
We shared a plate of whelks
strolling side [E]by side
[Am]I said she weren't too old to take
a [E]donkey ride
[D]But I didn't mind when she
[A]laughed and said no
So we [B]paused for a while and [E]listened
to the minstrel [A]show
[Am]There was a notice at [A]the

[Verse 4]
[E]Palace Pier
It [Am]said there was to be a dance that night
and it [E]wasn't dear
[D]I explained [F]of course that
[A]I could [F#]only waltz
And so we [B]waltzed to every [E]tune and
[A]air

[Interlude 1]
[D][A][E][A][D][F][A]
[F#][B][E][A]

[Verse 5]
[A]Nine o'clock [Am]come round we had to
[A]take the [E]cha[Am]rabanc
And Albert was too drunk to play
the banjo but still [E]we sang
[D]All except Marjorie, I could [A]tell at a glance
Be[B]cause me and Albert
was [E]leaving for France

[Verse 6]
[Am]I said we'll both be home
in a [E]week or two
[Am]Me and Albert and Lord Kitchener
will teach the [E]Hun a thing or two
I'm [D]sure to re[F]turn,
after [A]me do [F#]not yearn
And we [B]will waltz together [E]all our
lives [A]through

[Outro 1]
