Fm Fm6 Save me from drowning in the sea - Cm Beat me up on the beach. Fm Gm7 What a lovely holiday, G7 C7sus4 Cm There’s nothing funny left to say. Fm Fm6 This sombre song would drain the sun, Cm But it won’t shine until it’s sung. Fm Gm7 No water running in the stream, G7 C7sus4 C7 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# Gm Every mistake I’ve ever made Fm7 Has been rehashed and then replayed, A# As I got lost along the way. Chorus: Fm A# Bom-bom-bom bah dah dum-bom bom D# Cm Bom-bom-bom bah dah dum-bom bom G# A# Bom-bom-bom bah dah dum-bom bom Cm 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 - x3 Save me from drowning in the sea - Beat me up on the beach. What a lovely holiday, G7 Cm There’s nothing funny left to say.
