Cm
Jacqueline was seventeen, working on a desk
     G#                    A#
When Ivor peered above her spectacle
                   A#7              A#7
Forgot that he had wrecked a girl
Cm             G#                           A#
Sometime these eyes forget the face they're peering from
                   A#7         A#7
When the face they peer upon
G                          Cm
Well you know that face as I do
                 G#
And how in the return of the gaze
          A#                            Cm
She can return you the face that you're staring from

Cm          A#        G
It's always better on holiday
Cm      D#        A
So much better on holiday

That's why we only work when we need the money

Gregor was down again
       G#
Said, 'Come on, kick me again'
       A#                               A#7
Said, 'I'm so drunk I don't mind if you kill me'


Cm          G# 
Come on you gutless
A#
Yeah, I'm alive
    A#7
I'm alive
    G               Cm
I'm alive and how I know it
        G#             A#              Cm
But for chips, and for freedom I could die
