D                             E
Mr Briggs is on holiday, but he stays in his room
C                Bm             E
It's too cold to go out for his evening smoke
     D                        E
The lady down the hallway is deaf
and daft to what you say
  C              Bm              E
She's too busy dreaming of a Chihuahua dog

Chorus:
        C#m
Say goodbye
       D            A
Then slowly drift away
    E      D
To somewhere

Mr Briggs needs sleep now
He's been up for a week
He can hear a buzz buzz buzzing in his head
He has a three-bar heater
But it don't keep him warm
If he bought another then he'd have three more

Chorus

Mr Briggs while on holiday
Never left his bed
Walked around in circles but only in his head
The lady down the hallway
Is running out of pills
She could pull herself together
but she knows she never will

Chorus
