"Baubles, Bangles and Beads" was written by George Forest and Robert Wright in 1953 for the hit Broadway Musical, "Kismet". The musical ideas were said to be "borrowed" from the second movement of Alexander Borodin's String Quartet No. 2.

This song is fairly easy to play, however, there are a lot of accidentals to be mindful of. The composer chose to use accidentals rather than key changes for the several changes in tonality.

If you would like to see the lyrics or the chords, you can use Composer commands to display them: for lyrics use qsl; for chords use qscn.
