C                       C G
Sand is hurting my tender feet
C                               D
The air smells like rotting fish and solarcaine
C                       C G
I hate the people on the beach
C
With their towels and umbrellas
D
They're so insane


D                       C     C G C
I don't wanna be on the beach! No! (x2)
D                  C         C G C
I don't wanna be on the beach!
D                       C   C G C
I don't wanna be on the beach! No!

I hate my girlfriend, she-she-she
Lies on the beach like a barrier reef
Soaking up the stupid sun
While the radio is blasting fun, fun, fun

I don't wanna be on the beach! No fun! (x2)
I don't wanna be on the beach!
I don't wanna be on the beach! No fun! No!
(x2)

This is no way to spend a summer
I've got sand caked on my feet
I gave my ice cream to a shark
And now I've got nothing to eat
No fun!

I don't wanna be on the beach! No fun!
I don't wanna be on the beach! No fun! No!
I don't wanna be on the beach!
I don't wanna be on the beach! No fun.


Mike's addition:
---------------
Bucky's tab was missing something. During the verse "This is no way
to spend the summer..." there is a solo kind of thing, and it is played
once before with no words. I tabbed it, and it took a bit too, so here
goes:

(1:07)
E----------------------------------------------------------------
B----------------------------------------------------------------
G--------------------------0---2-0-------------------------------
D--------------------0-2-3---------3--2-3-3-3--2-2-1-1-----------
A-3--3--3-2-3--0-2-3-----------------------------------3--3-2-3--
E----------------------------------------------------------------

(1:14)
E-------------------------------------
B-------------------------------------
G---------------------------------0---
D-0--2--0-------------------0-2-3-----
A----------3----------0-2-3-----------
E-------------3-3-3-3-----------------

This comes at the time with no words, the times with words are played at
1:28 and 1:35.
