Verse: D5 Bm7(no5) D5/A A5 A(no5) 
 
D5                  Bm7(no5) 
 It`s hard to wake up   
                                 D5/A 
 When the shades have been pulled shut  
 
 This house is haunted  
 A5  
 It`s so pathetic 
 A(no5) 
 It makes no sense at all. 
D5                       Bm7(no5) 
 I`m ripe with things to say 
                         A5/A 
 The words rot and fall away. 
                        A5 
 What stupid poem could fix this home 
 A(no5)                       
 I`d read it every day. 
 
   
G5                  D(no5)/F# 
 So here`s your holiday 
             G5 
 Hope you enjoy it this time 
               D(no5)/F# 
 You gave it away 
           G5 
 It was mine  
                          D(no5)/F# 
 So when you`re dead and gone 
             G5 
 Will you remember this night, twenty years 
 D(no5)/F# 
 now lost 
                
 It`s not right

D5                    Bm7(no5) 
 Their anger hurts my ears  
                                D5/A 
 Been running strong for seven years 
                                A5 
 Rather than fix the ploblems, they never  
 
 solve them 
 A(no5)                        
 It makes no sense at all 
D5                  Bm7(no5) 
 I see them every day 
                              D5/A 
 We get along, so why can`t they? 
 
 If this is what he wants and this is what 
A5 
 she wants 
     A(no5)                      
 Then why is there so much pain?  
 
   
G5                  D(no5)/F# 
 So here`s your holiday 
             G5 
 Hope you enjoy it this time 
               D(no5)/F# 
 You gave it away 
           G5 
 It was mine  
                          D(no5)/F# 
 So when you`re dead and gone 
             G5 
 Will you remember this night, twenty years 
 D(no5)/F# 
 now lost 
                
 It`s not right 
 
Interlude: D D5/A A 
 
   
G5                  D(no5)/F# 
 So here`s your holiday 
             G5 
 Hope you enjoy it this time 
               D(no5)/F#
