  			E                          C#m 
What became of everyone I used to know? 
G#m                          A 
Where did our respectable convictions go? 
E                                          C#m 
Your words don’t match the story that your actions show 
G#m                A 
  But what do I know? 

F#m                       G#m     A 
  I’m sure you can’t help but remembering 
C#m                     B             A 
I thought that you’d be one not to forget 
C#m               B           A   
Remembering’s not helping you yet

Say goodnight 
     C#m 
Mean goodbye 
           A                   B                C#m      E 
I know you think my life will stop when you’re away 
A           B 
Maybe I can see you on 
E         C#m 
Holidays, worlds away 
A              B             C#m        E 
I’ve never forgotten all our yesterdays 
    A              B 
I’m lucky if we’re speaking on the

Holidays 

C#m    G#m     A 


E                              C#m 
The evidence presents itself accusingly 
     G#m                             A 
Your absence speaking everything you think of me 
E                             C#m 
Now that I am faced with opportunity 
G#m                  A 
  You’re not remembering 

F#m              G#m A 
  I’m not asking you anyway 
C#m             B               A 
And even if you ever could cave in 
  C#m           B          A 
I wouldn’t know where to begin 

    E 
Say goodnight 
     C#m 
Mean goodbye 
           A                   B                C#m     E 
I know you think my life will stop when you’re away 
A           B 
Maybe I can see you on 
E         C#m 
Holidays, worlds away
