Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Intro
Well  the dog act got drunk  again last night
 And the King  and Quenn of the waltz  clog team had  another fight
 King was careless  with his tango  grip
 Nearly lost  his queen in a dip
 Yeah, she righted  herself, straightened out  her slip
 and kicked  him in the shin
 Miss Billy  Begonia thinks she's hit  the big time
 She wants a thick  red rug from the dressing  room door
 To the frontline  of the footlights
 She's got a sky  blue swandown powder  puff
 and a corset  to keep her spirts  up
 Yeah, she  don't sweat, she sours  and melts
 Like ice  cream in the sun
 She'll be out  of a job at the end of this
Three  week run
We're  havin fun  out here, on Panic Beach
 All the Vaudeville bums  are here, out on Panic Beach
 I hear them talk about the palace
 But its so  far out of reach
 So I'll do my time
 Then say goodbye  to Panic Beach
 Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
 same chords has verse 2*
 The visionary theatric strikes a juggler's seesan tune
 and the dying swan pirouettes and fawns
 by the light of the street lamp moon
 When my trunk is filled with taffeta
 Those big time hacks won't laugh at us
 When my taps are mado of silver
 I can make the kiddies thrill for just one buck and wing
 Yeah, I will nail them to my heel and the pnaic choir sings
 same chords as Chorus*
 Here comes a lucky little thing to panic beach
 yeah, you know we got to teach him how to sing
 While we're stuck on panic beach
 Ah, the way ya hear em say it
 Doesn't seem so out of reach
 So I'll do my time
 Then say goodbye to Panic Beach
 Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
 same chords as verse 2 except no chord over first line - pick up
 with Fm in second line*
 Well the landlord gets a free show, every Saturday at six
 Sometimes on Sunday all dependin on whatever kind of
 mood he's in
 I keep his glass filled up with sherry
 And sing him all his favorite songs
 If a tear comes to his eye, he may let
 A month go by before he takes away my key
 Oh, that sherry, starts to taste real good to me
 Hey mam look at me on panic beach
 I may be hungry but my rent is free up on panic beach
 yeah, I can almost see the palace
 No longer out of reach
 So I'll do my time
 Then say goodbye to Panic Beach
 Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
 Fade on
