Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]I w[G]as [D]bugged when
you [E]called me,
Com[A]ing on with this [D]great [A]idea.
[D]The idea simply [E]appalled me,
To go to [A]Santa Monica Pier[D].
But when I tried to say [E]no, dear,
You [A]didn't tell me that [D]I was wrong.
[A]You[D] just said you were goi[B]ng there
and [E]that you'd like [A]to take me along
[D]And you said, imagine the music
of the merry -go -round
[E]Drifting over the salty air,
the taste of [A]vine
In the sky the gulls are crying
[D]an d the ocean spray is [G]flying there
[D]I had to smi[E]le, dear,
[A]you really had [D]made it [A]clear.
[D]So I reluctantly sai[B]d I'd take you
[E]down to Santa [A]Monica Pier.
[D]I took you down to the[E] pier, dear,
[A]it was such a [D]fine
[A]Fish [D]and chips and a [E]beer, dear,
[A]Down on Santa Monica Pier[D].[A]
[D]You took my photograph [E]there, dear,
[A]The sun shone in your gol[D]den hai[A]r,
[D]And I knew you could car[B]e for me
Down [E]there on Santa [A]Monica Pier.
[D]Imagine the music
of the merry -go -round
[E]Drifting over the salty air
The taste of [A]thyme in the sky
The bells are crying
[D]An d the [A]ocean spray is flying [D]there
I saw you [E]smile, dear
[A]Your eyes were so [D]bright and clear
[A]Wha[D]t a day to be tak[B]ing pictures
[E]down on Santa [A]Monica Pier[D],
on Santa [A]Monica Pier.
