C                              G
He was just a friend of mine,  I'd run into from time to time

Am                         F
Long before he moved away, we use to share a drink of wine.

C             G                         F
Still I never knew that he was sad that way

C       F            G               F      C   G
He said the time had come for him to take a holiday
{Chorus}:
                C                                  F
And he says its brilliant there, there's something in the air,

             C                        G
and sunshine everywhere.  He's on the beach.

            C                            F
I know he's changed somehow, it's in his postcards now

             C                            G
I'm not sure where he is, but he's out of reach.

C                                G
When he called me up one day and said that he was going away,

Am                                           F
I thought he meant a week in France, and not 12,000 miles in Sydney Bay.

C               G        F
Still he had to take his chances.

C       F            G               F      C    G
He said the time had come for him to make a move away.
{Chorus}:
                C                                  F
And he says its brilliant there, there's something in the air,

             C                        G
and sunshine everywhere.  He's on the beach.

            C                            F
I know he's changed somehow, it's in his postcards now

             C                         G
He's 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                                      F
it's really unfair...there's something in the air,

             C                        G
and sunshine everywhere.  He's on the beach.

            C                            F
I know he's changed somehow, it's in his postcards now

             C                   G
He's in Australia, so far out of reach.

            C                           F   C   G
And he says it's pretty(?) there.
C F C G progression to end...
