Vampire Weekend – Holiday (Guitar)

D
Holiday, O, A Holiday!

    G            D      A
And the best one of the year

D
Dozing off underneath my sheets

        G     D       A
While I cover both my ears

    G    A          D    G           A       D
But if I wait for a holiday could it stop my fear?

   G     A      D        G         A         D
To go away on a summer’s day never seemed so clear

D
Holiday, still so far away

     G       D     A
Our republic on the beach

D
I can’t forget just how bad it gets

        G        D      A
When I’m counting on my teeth

    G    A          D   G            A       D
But if I wait for a holiday could it stop my fear?

   G     A      D        G         A         D
To go away on a summer’s day never seemed so clear

G            A
A vegetarian since the invasion

D                         G
She’d never seen the word BOMBS

G                          A
She’d never seen the words blown up

   D            G
To 96 point Futura

                    A
She’d never seen an AK

      D              G
In a yellowy Day Glo display

                       A                            D
A t-shirt so lovely it turned all the history books grey

D
I’ve got wheels, I’ve got cutter spray

      G       D        A
And a healthy sense of worth

D
Half of me is the gasoline

        G     D          A
But the other half’s the surf

   G    A          D   G            A       D
So if I wait for a holiday could it stop my fear?

   G     A      D        G         A         D
To go away on a summer’s day never seemed so clear
