Holiday

Kinks

 A-F#-Bm-E

Verse 1
 AF#Bm
 Holiday,      
 EAF#
Oh what a lovely day today,
 BmEAF#
 I'm oh so glad they sent me away,
 BmEAF#BmEbE
To have a little holiday today, holiday.

Verse 2
 AF#
 Holiday,
 BmEAF#
 And I'm just standing on the end of a pier,
 BmEAF#
 Hoping and dreaming you were here,
 BmEA
 To share my little holiday.

Verse 3
 AF#BmE
 Lookin' in the sky for a gap in the clouds,
 AF#BmE
 Sometimes I think that sun ain't never coming out,
 AA7DBm
But I'd rather be here than in that dirty old town,
 E
had to leave the city cos it really brought me down.

Verse 4
 AF#BmEAF#
Oh holiday, oh what a lovely day today,
 BmEAF#
 I think I'll get down on my little ol' knees and pray, thank you Lord,
 BmEAF#BmE
Thank heaven for this holiday today, holiday.

Bridge
 DA
I'm leaving insecurity behind me,
 DA
The environmental pressures got me down,
 AA7DBm
 I don't need no sedatives to pull me round,
 E
 I don't need no sleeping pills to help me sleep sound.

Verse 5
Oh holiday,
Oh what a lovely day today,
I think I'll get down on my little ol' knees and pray,
That's what I'll do,
Thank heaven for this holiday.

Verse 6
Lying on the beach with my back burned rare,
The salt gets in my blisters and the sand gets in my hair,
And the sea's an open sewer,
But I really couldn't care,
I'm breathing through my mouth so I don't have to sniff the air.

Verse 7
Oh holiday,
Oh what a lovely day today,
I'm so glad they sent me away,
To have a little holiday.
