---Verse 1---
[E]Standing in the dock at Southampton
Trying to get to Holland or France
The [E7]man in the mac said
"You gotta go back"
You know they didn't even give us a chance
---Chorus---
Christ, you know it ain't [A]easy
You know how hard it can [E]be
The way things are [B7]going
They're gonna crucify [E]me.
---Verse 2---
[E]Finally made the plane into Paris
Honeymooning down by the Seine
Peter [E7]Brown called to say,
"You can make it okay"
"You can get married in Gibraltar near Spain!"
---Verse 3---
[E]Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton
Talking in our beds for a week
The [E7]newspapers said,
"Say, what you doing in bed?"
I said, "We're
only trying to get us some peace!"
---Bridge---
[A]Saving up your money for a rainy day
Giving all your clothes to charity
last night the wife said
Oh boy when you're dead
You [B7]don't take nothing with you but your soul
Think!
---Verse 4---
[E]Made a lightning trip to Vienna
Eating chocolate cake in a bag
The [E7]newspapers said, "She's gone to his head
They look just like two gurus in drag!"
---Verse 5---
[E]Caught the early plane back to London
Fifty acorns tied in a sack
The [E7]men from the press
say "We wish you success!"
"It's good to have the both of you back!"
End Chorus
Christ, you know it ain't [A]easy
You know how hard it can [E]be
The way things are [B7]going
They're gonna crucify [E]me.
The way things are [B7]going
They're gonna crucify [E]me.
