To have a little holiday today, holiday,

Holiday,
Bm E A F#
And I'm just standing on the edge of a pier,
Bm E A F#
Hoping and dreaming you were here,
Bm E A
To share my little holiday,
A F# Bm E
Lookin' in the sky, for a gap in the clouds,
A F# Bm E
Sometimes I think that sun ain't never coming out,
A A7 D Bm
But I'd rather be here than in that dirty old town,
E
I had to leave the city cos it nearly broke me down,
A F# Bm
Holiday,

I'm leaving insecurity behind me,
D A
The environmental pressures got me down,
A A7 D Bm
I don't need no sedatives to slow me down,
E
I don't need no sleeping pills to help me sleep sound,
A F#
Oh holiday,
Bm E A F#
Oh what a lovely day today,
Bm E A F#
I think I'll get down on my knees and pray,
Bm E A
Thank heaven for this holiday,
D A
Lying on the beach with my back burned rare,
D A
And the salt gets in my blisters and the sand gets in my hair,
A A7
And the sea's an open sewer,
D Bm
But I really couldn't care,
E
I'm breathing through my mouth so I don't have to sniff the air,
A F# Bm
Holiday,
E A F#
Oh what a lovely day today,
Bm E A F#
I'm so glad they sent me away,
Bm E A F# Bm E
To have a little holiday today, holiday,
