Beautiful Swimmers 

E      A  (4x)

E                    A                E
Marilyn Monroe did a night shoot in a pool
       B
Posing naked for a Playboy spread
        A                      E
She was old, but she still was cool
          A                   E
When they wrapped right after midnight
        G#m              C#m
And the crew went to the bar
      A                 E
Norma Jean just did the backstroke
             B                     E
Like she was reaching for a fallen star

Chorus:
A                E
Beautiful Swimmers 
B           E
Know how to move
A                 E                  B
Slidin’ cross the water like a steel guitar
A         E        G#m         C#m
Beautiful Swimmers stay in the groove
A               B                 E     A
Riding constant currents near and far

E
Standing in a tidal pool 
     A            E
Just east of Baltimore
B
Watching little blue crabs 
    A                E
Navigate the eastern shore
      A                E
Every bayou stream and river 
   G#m              C#m
In time runs to the sea
      A                      E
Every tadpole, flounder, and softshell 
B                  E 
Feels the choreography They’re all

A                E
Beautiful Swimmers 
B                E
They know how to move
A                 E                       B
Sneaking past the draggers and the oyster bars
A         E        G#m           C#m
Beautiful Swimmers just feel the groove
A               B                  E       A          
Painting liquid brush strokes like Renoir

G#m       C#m
I miss my dorsal fin
G#m       C#m
I can’t explain
G#m                   C#m
I’m a big fish out of water
A                       B
Dwelling on the coastal plain

E
Now If I was as rich as the Aga Khan
A                       E
I tell you what I would do
    B
Buy every man, woman, and child on this planet
  A                  E
A mask and a snorkel too
         A               E
Then I’d lead the wild migration
     G#m           C#m
Destination Waimea Bay
          A               B
Then we’d splash our way around the world
A              B        E
Life is just a water ballet
            A         E           B
Come on you Beautiful Swimmers 
                E
Who know how to move
A                      E                     B
Let’s glide across the water like a steel guitar
A         E        G#m         C#m
Beautiful Swimmers stay in the groove
A                 B                 E      A  E   A  E
Catching constant currents near and far
