[Verse 1]
[D]I've seen[G][A][D]
[A]the lights
of gay Broad[D]way,
Old Market Street down by the Frisco Bay,
I've strolled the Prado,
[Em]I've[B] gambled on th[G]e [E]Bour[A]se;
The [D]seven wonders of the world
[G]I've seen,
And many are the places
[Bb]I have bee[D]n,
Take my [Asus4]advice, f[D]olks[G],
[D]and see [A]Beale [D]Street first!
[A]You'll see

[Verse 2]
[D]pretty browns
in beautiful gowns,
You'll see [Em]tailo[D]r- m[Em]ades
[G]and [A]hand- [D]me- downs,
[A]You'll mee[D]t honest men,
and [G]pick- pockets skilled,
[Bdim]You'll find that busines[D]s never ce[Gm]ases '[G]til somebody gets [A]killed[D]!
[G][Bm]

[G]Bea[Eb]le St[D]reet could talk, if Beale Street could t[Bm]alk,[D]
Married [C]men would [B]have to
[Bdim]take their bed[E]s an[Bb]d wal[A]k,
Ex[D]cept one or [C]two [F]who
[G]never drink [Bb]booze,
And the blind man [Cdim]on the corne[B]r
[Em]singing [Eb]"Beale [D]Street Blues!"

[Verse 4]
[G]I'd rather be [C]there than
any place I [G]know,
[Dm]I'd [C]rather b[Gm]e th[C]ere than
[G]any pla[A]ce I k[Bbdim]now,[G]
It's [E]gonna [A]take [D]a sergeant
[Eb]for to m[D]ake me g[G]o!

[Verse 5]
I'm goin' to the [G]river[C],
maybe [G]by and by,
Yes, I'm [C]goin' to the river,
maybe [G]by and [Am]by,[C][G]
Because the [D]river's wet,
and Beale Street's done gone dry!
[G][C][G]
