        This Intro is played once 
then along with the chorus

               Am        G        
        You'll have to excuse me, 
    C         F
I'm not at my best
                  C          G
        I've been gone for a month
                                C
        I've been drunk since I left
              Am          G
        These so called vacations
             C          F
        Will soon be my death
               C             G
        I'm so sick from the drink

        I need home for a rest ...


  Then it breaks into a verse with 
fast paced chords:

           Am           G          
        We arrived in December and 
C          F
London was cold
              C             G
        So we stayed in the bars
              C             G
        Along Charing Cross Road
           Am        G           
        We never saw nothin' but 
C              F
brass taps and oak
                 C            G
        Kept the shine on the bar
                 C             
        With the sleeves of our 
 G
coats

  Chorus:
               G                 
        You'll have to excuse me, 
     C         G
I'm not at my best
                  C          F
        I've been gone for a week
                  C             G
        I've been drunk since I left
              G
        These so-called vacations
             C          G
        Will soon be my death
               C             F
        I'm so sick from the drink
               G          C
        I need home for a rest ...

  Verse #2
   Euston Station the train journey 
north
   In the buffet car we lurched back
 and forth
   Past odd crooked dykes
   Through Yorkshire's green fields
   We were flung into dance
   As the train jigged and reeled

  Chorus

  Verse #3
   By the light of the moon she'd 
drift through the streets
   A rare old perfume so seductive 
and sweet
   She'd tease us and flirt as the 
pubs all closed down
   Then walk us on home and deny us 
a round

  Chorus

  Verse #4
   The gas heater's empty, it's damp
 as a tomb
   And the spirits we drank like a 
ghost in the room
   I'm knackered again, come on 
please take me soon
   And don't lift up my head
   'till the twelve bells at noon

  Chorus
