Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
([ch]A[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]C#[/ch]) [ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch]
I had a break for a week so I booked my seat
ch]Dm[/ch
And confirmed a reservation
ch]G7[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
At a quiet little seaside hotel.
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
I packed my bags and I caught my train and
ch]Dm[/ch
Reached my destination
ch]G7[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
Just in time for the dinner gong ding dong.
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
Then I saw Lavinia - standing at the bottom of the stairs.
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
And I fell for Lavinia- the moment that I saw her standing there.
ch]C7[/ch
Lavinia looked so divine, as she walked up to the table to dine
ch]A7[/ch
And then Lavinia's eyes met mine.
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
(I thought) can this be love, can this be lovey-dove
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Or just a holiday romance?
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
Can this be long lost love at last
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Or is it just a flash in the pan?
ch]C[/ch
Then after cheese and liqueurs they struck up the band,
ch]F[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch
I plucked up my courage and I asked Lavinia to dance
ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
That was the start of my holiday romance.
Instrumental
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Just a holiday romance.
Instrumental
ch]C[/ch
We did the foxtrot, samba and danced through the night
ch]F[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch
The last waltz came and we held each other so tight.
ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
That was the start of my holiday romance.
ch]C7[/ch
Just a holiday romance- a simple holiday romance.
[ch]A7[/ch] (Bass walk [ch]A[/ch] [ch]B[/ch] [ch]C#[/ch])
I wonder should I take a chance?
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
We walked on the beach, and we paddled our feet,
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch
And we watched all the swimmers,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
And my holiday treat felt complete.
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
We drank lemonade, and we sat in the shade,
ch]Dm[/ch
I thought I must be on a winner
ch]G[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
And I acted cool and discreet.
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch
For I knew that Lavinia
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
Was the shyest lady that I'd ever met,
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch
And I knew that Lavinia
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
Would only be my lady for the week.
It was just a holiday romance. A simple holiday romance.

I wonder should I take this chance?
Instrumental
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Just a holiday romance.
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch
Can this be love, can this be lovey-dove
ch]Dm[/ch] [ch]A7[/ch] [ch]Dm[/ch
Or just a holiday romance?
ch]C7[/ch
I tried to kiss her, she walked away,
ch]F[/ch
She said "Better stop, my husband's
ch]D7[/ch
Coming to collect me today".
ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch
That was the end of my holiday, sweet and innocent holiday,
ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]F6[/ch
End of my holiday romance.
