Holiday Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Vampire Weekend
Works best on ukulele, 
but works just fine on guitar too (capo where ever)
Listen to the song for timing

C
Holiday, O, A Holiday!
    F            C      G
And the best one of the year
C
Dozing off underneath my sheets
        F     C       G
While I cover both my ears

    F    G          C    F           G       C
But if I wait for a holiday could it stop my fear?
   F     G      C        F         G         C
To go away on a summer's day never seemed so clear

Holiday, still so far away
Our republic on the beach
I can't forget just how bad it gets
When I'm counting on my teeth

But if I wait for a holiday
Could it stop my fear?
To go away on a summer's day
Never seemed so clear

F            G
A vegetarian since the invasion
C                         F
She'd never seen the word BOMBS
F                          G
She'd never seen the words blown up
   C            F
To 96 point Futura
                    G
She'd never seen an AK
      C              F
In a yellowy Day Glo display
                       G                            C
A t-shirt so lovely it turned all the history books grey

I've got wheels, I've got cutter spray
And a healthy sense of worth
Half of me is the gasoline
But the other half's the surf
So if I wait for a holiday could it stop my fear?
To go away on a summer's day never seemed so clear
