((I learned to play this song on the ukulele, I chose these chord positions based on how
I also choose to play the ukulele. I've also tried out the song on the guitar in these
chord positions, and it sounds dandy! It makes the key change visually apparent, and 
allows for quick, fluid movement along the fret board. If you feel like changing the chord
positions, feel free! These made the most sense to me.))

It's in 3/4 timing, a waltz.

Eb            Bb7
Every night she comes
                  Eb
To take me out to dreamland
        Bb7                                  Eb
When I'm with her I'm the richest man in the town
                      Bb7
She's a rose, She's a pearl
                     Eb
She's the spin on my world
        Bb7                           Eb
All the stars make their wishes on her eyes

[[KEY CHANGE TO F]]
In this in between part: strum, pick, do your thing, w.e.
Play along with the same pacing as you would as if the words were being sung up until
after the first "Coney Island Girl", then go back to the beginning and play it from the
top in the new key:
