An Englishman On Holiday

D      A      G      E

[Verse 1]
                     A            B                        E
Laying down in this Spanish bar, that last slammer hit me like a car
E                     A              B                      D    A    E
I've got the 6 a.m. Balearic blues, can't even focus on my own tattoos
                     A             B                          C#m      F#
I had a fight with this German guy, I saw him give my little girl the eye
                            A          B                       D
While he was trying hard to be so cool, I hit him with a stool

[Chorus]
 A   G    E      D     A      G       E
Oh yes, alright, I'll be going all night
 D     A        G         E              D      A      G       E
Gonna drink 'til they take me away, I'm an Englishman on holiday

[Verse 2]
                            A            B               E
Every year I get to do the same, I meet the boys and get on the plane
                                    A        B
We like to sing and shout out "here we go"
                                 D    A    E
'Cos they're the only words that we all know
                                   A
We've got the loudest shirts you've ever seen
      B                       C#m     F#
We're gonna take the beaches like a team
                               A                  B
We've got so much duty free to drink, enough to float a ship

[Chorus]
 D     A     G   E   D    A    G     E
Oh yeah alright, I'll be going all night
 D             A          G          E        D      A     G      E
So light the paper, get out of the way, I'm an Englishman on holiday

[Bridge]
  C                                   D          Bm               C   D
We never look for trouble at the start, but it always comes our way
 D#      A#         D#      A#             G     A     B
We've got our pride and we just can't walk away

[Verse 3]
                           A       B
This morning I woke up inside a cell
                                 E
They dragged me screaming out of my hotel
                            A
I don't remember what it was I did
     B                            D    A     E
But I've got this drummer banging in my head
                             A                    B         C#m         F#
I've got to get out 'fore I miss the plane, next summer I'll be back again
                              A                      B
I'll be fighting for the Union Jack, if they let me back

[Chorus]
 D     A    G       E    D    A    G    E
Oh yes, alright, I'll be going all night
  D       A          G        E         D       A      G      E
Gonna drink 'til they take me away, I'm an Englishman on holiday...
