Em                          Em₆
Save me from drowning in the sea -
Bm
Beat me up on the beach.
Em                F#m₇
What a lovely holiday,
                F#₇           B₇sus₄ Bm
There’s nothing funny left to say.

Em                              Em₆
This sombre song would drain the sun,
Bm
But it won’t shine until it’s sung.
Em                        F#m₇
No water running in the stream,
                  F#₇        B₇sus₄   B₇
The saddest place we’ve ever seen.

 G                          A/G
   Everything I touched was golden,
                          D
   Everything I loved got broken

   On the road to Mandalay¹.
 G                         F#m
   Every mistake I’ve ever made
                                 Em₇
   Has been rehashed and then replayed,
                           A
   As I got lost along the way.

Chorus:
                  Em              A
      Bom-bom-bom bah dah dum-bom bom
                  D               Bm
      Bom-bom-bom bah dah dum-bom bom
                  G               A
      Bom-bom-bom bah dah dum-bom bom
             Bm
      Bom-ba-dum

There’s nothing left for you to give.
The truth is all that you’re left with,
Twenty paces then at dawn
We will die and be reborn.

I like to sleep beneath the trees,
Have the universe at one with me,
Look down the barrel of a gun
And feel the Moon replace the Sun.

   Everything we’ve ever stolen
   Has been lost, returned or broken,
   No more dragons left to slay.
   Every mistake I’ve ever made
   Has been rehashed and then replayed
   As I got lost along the way.

Chorus 3 times

Instrumental: Em | A | D | Bm
              G | A₇ | Bm | Bm

Save me from drowning in the sea -
Beat me up on the beach.
What a lovely holiday,
                F#₇           Bm
There’s nothing funny left to say.
