Chords by: Aaron Williams 


C (x32010@1)                            GHe (320003@1)was just a friend of mine,  I'd run into from time to time
Am (x02210@1)                       FLong (133211@1)before he moved away, we use to share a drink of wine.
C (x32010@1)           G (320003@1)                       FStill (133211@1)I never knew that he was sad that way
C (x32010@1)     F (133211@1)          G (320003@1)             F (133211@1)    C (x32010@1) GHe (320003@1)said the time had come for him to take a holiday


{Chorus}:
                C (x32010@1)                                FAnd (133211@1)he says its brilliant there, there's something in the air,
             C (x32010@1)                      Gand (320003@1)sunshine everywhere.  He's on the beach.
            C (x32010@1)                          FI (133211@1)know he's changed somehow, it's in his postcards now
             C (x32010@1)                          GI'm (320003@1)not sure where he is, but he's out of reach.


C (x32010@1)                              GWhen (320003@1)he called me up one day and said that he was going away,
Am (x02210@1)                                         FI (133211@1)thought he meant a week in France, and not 12,000 miles in Sydney Bay.
C (x32010@1)             G (320003@1)      FStill (133211@1)he had to take his chances.
C (x32010@1)     F (133211@1)          G (320003@1)             F (133211@1)    C (x32010@1)  GHe (320003@1)said the time had come for him to make a move away.


{Chorus}:
                C (x32010@1)                                FAnd (133211@1)he says its brilliant there, there's something in the air,
             C (x32010@1)                      Gand (320003@1)sunshine everywhere.  He's on the beach.
            C (x32010@1)                          FI (133211@1)know he's changed somehow, it's in his postcards now
             C (x32010@1)                       GHe's (320003@1)on his own again, and he's out of reach.


{Bridge}:

And I don't blame him.  Leaving was the best thing he could do.

He longed for changes, I just hope he's happy,

when he does the things he thinks he has to do.


And he tries, and tries, and tries, but he's lived at home (?)

I think he's trying to be someone else, and he says, he says, he says,


C (x32010@1)                                    Fit's (133211@1)really unfair...there's something in the air,
             C (x32010@1)                      Gand (320003@1)sunshine everywhere.  He's on the beach.
            C (x32010@1)                          FI (133211@1)know he's changed somehow, it's in his postcards now
             C (x32010@1)                 GHe's (320003@1)in Australia, so far out of reach.
            C (x32010@1)                         F (133211@1) C (x32010@1) GAnd (320003@1)he says it's pretty(?) there.
