E 
Standing in the dock at Southampton 
 
Trying to get to Holland Or France 
    E7 
The Man In the Mac said 
 
You gotta go back 
 
you know they didnt even give us a chance 
                 A 
you know it aint easy 
                         E 
you know how hard it can be 
                   B7 
the way things are going ... 
                     E 
theyre gonna crucify me. 
 
Finally made the plane into paris 
honeymooning down by the seine 
peter brown called to say 
you can make it ok 
you can get married in gibraltar near spain .. 
 
you know it aint easy.... etc 
 
Drove from paris to the amsterdam hilton 
talking in our beds for a week 
the newspapers said 
whatre you doing in bed 
i said we`re only trying to get us some peace ... 
 
you know it aint easy...etc 
 
A 
saving all your money for a rainy day 
giving all your clothes to charity 
 
B7 
last nite the wife said 
oh boy when youre dead 
                                     B 
You dont take nothing with you but your soul 
 
E 
Think! 
 
[final two verses corrected] 
 
Made a lightning trip to Vienna 
Eating chocolate cake in a bag 
The newspapers said, "She`s gone to his head 
They look just like two gurus in drag" ...CHORUS 
 
Caught the early plane back to London 
Fifty acorns tied in a sack 
The men from the press say "We wish you success 
It`s good to have the both of you back"...CHORUS
