[Intro]
A#7add9 Am Am B7add13 Dmadd9
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
Am
Your grandfather's guitar
                  B7add13             Dmadd9
Thinkin' about how funny I must look
                 Am
Tryin' to adjust to what's been there all along
         B7add13                 Dmadd9         Am
With the boat kiosk lady and her sleepy amigos
 
 
[Chorus 1]
 
  D7             C#dim7        F#m
--But it ain't a holiday until
                D                        Am
You go to fetch somethin' from the car
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Am
Travel size champagne cork pops
B7add13
And we're sweepin' for bugs
Dmadd9                    Am
In some dusty apartment,
Am
the what's-it-called café
        B7add13                   Dmadd9                 Am
You can arrive at eleven and have lunch with the English
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
D7               C#dim7        F#m
--But it ain't a holiday until
                  D
They force you to make a wish
 
           Faug
They say, "climb up this"
     Em       A      Bm
And "jump off that"
                    E                     A#maj13
And you pretend to fall asleep on the way back
 
 
[Instrumental]
 
Am Am B7add13 Dmadd9 Am
Am D7
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
D7             C#dim7         F#m
No, it ain't a holiday until
                   D                       Am
You go up to fetch somethin' from the car
