[Verse 1]
C
Hiked up to Sydney in the week 
before Christmas
C
It was thirty-eight degrees in the 
shade
C
I bought a second-hand Morris for a 
cheap two-twenty
C
And drove it down to Adelaide
     F
She boiled for an hour twenty miles 
out of Euston
  C
I thought that heat would never end
C
But I knew I'd be home for Christmas
 with my Sandy
      F5   E5   D5    C5   G5
And a few extra dollars to spend


[Chorus]
G
Home and broken hearted
          C
I've been pasted to the telephone
Am         Em        F          
Boxing Day break was wasted 
    G          C
sitting home on my own
    G5              F5   G5      
The beer we bought for Christmas 
        F5           G5
ran dry this afternoon
           C5
And on the radio it's New Year's Eve
       Dm       Em          F    
What a low down time of the year 
             G            C
to pack your luggage and leave


[Verse 2]
C
I drove it to the buyer just as fast
 as I could go

C
I was talking to his teenage son
C
I sure hope it lasted for the poor 
little bastard
C
At least until he'd had some fun
   F
I caught a taxi homeward with great 
anticipation
C
Thinkin' all you have to do is try
C
There was a note propped up against 
the dressing table mirror
      F5    E5    D5    C5   G5
"Dear Jimmy, it's over, goodbye!"

G
Home and broken hearted
          C
I've been pasted to the telephone
Am         Em        F          
Boxing Day break was wasted 
    G          C
sitting home on my own
    G5              F5   G5     N.C.
     F5           G5
The beer we bought for Christmas ran
 dry this afternoon
           C
And on the radio it's New Year's Eve
       Dm       Em          F    
What a low down time of the year 
             G            Am
to pack your luggage and leave

[Verse 3]
D
Went to a party, tried to drink 
myself happy
D
The steaks were washed away in the 
rain
D
Finished up in bed with an old 
acquaintance
       C
She'll never be my friend again
    G
And everyone was asking me where's 
the little woman
       D
Rolled home before the rain could 
stop
D                                  
I've been sitting for days reading 
C
pre-Christmas papers
        G5    F#5   E5   D5  A5
With my heels on the table-top


[Chorus]
A
Home and broken hearted
          D
I've been pasted to the telephone
Bm         F#m       G          
Boxing Day break was wasted 
    A          D
sitting home on my own
    A5              G5   A5     N.C.
     G5           A5
The beer we bought for Christmas ran
 dry this afternoon
           D5
And on the radio it's New Year's Eve
       Em       F#m          G   
What a low down time of the year 
             A            Bm
