A F# B7
Holiday,
E7 A F#
Oh what a lovely day today,
B7 E7 A F#
I'm oh so glad they sent me away,
B7 E7 A F# B7 E7
To have a little holiday today, holiday.
[Verse]
A F#
Holiday,
B7 E7 A F#
And I'm just standing on the end of a pier,
B7 E7 A F#
Hoping and dreaming you were here,
B7 E7 A
To share my little holiday.
[Verse]
A F# B7 E7
Lookin' in the sky for a gap in the clouds,
A F# B7 E7
Sometimes I think that sun ain't never coming out,
A A7 D D#dim7
But I'd rather be here than in that dirty old town,
E
I had to leave the city cos it really brought me down.
[Verse]
A F# B7 E7 A F#
Oh holiday, oh what a lovely day today,
B7 E7 A F#
I think I'll get down on my little ol' knees and pray, thank you Lord,
B7 E7 A F# B7 E7
Thank heaven for this holiday today, holiday.
[Bridge]
D D#dim7 A
I'm leaving insecurity behind me,
D D#dim7 A
The environmental pressures got me down,
C# D D#dim7
I don't need no sedatives to pull me round,
E
I don't need no sleeping pills to help me sleep sound.
[Verse]
A F#
Oh holiday,
B7 E7 A F#
Oh what a lovely day today,
B7 E7 A
I think I'll get down on my little ol' knees and pray,
F#
That's what I'll do,
B7 E7 A
Thank heaven for this holiday.
[Verse]
A F# B7 E7
Lying on the beach with my back burned rare,
A F# B7 E7
The salt gets in my blisters and the sand gets in my hair,
A A7
And the sea's an open sewer,
D D#dim7
But I really couldn't care,
E
I'm breathing through my mouth so I don't have to sniff the air.
[Verse]
A F#
Oh holiday,
B7 E7 A F#
Oh what a lovely day today,
B7 E7 A F#
I'm so glad they sent me away,
B7 E7 A
To have a little holiday.
