[D] [Em] [D]
I've been taking nearly every [C] shady lady home I [G] got an itchy feeling under [C] my skin
[G]
So I grabbed my [D] rags and packed my [G] bags and got back on the road [Em] again
Filled [Am] up with [D] paradise, I [G] needed sugar and spice [C] [G] I knew I needed [D] a [G] holiday
[D] My main concern was which [C] direction to turn [G] I was looking forward to a [C] retreat
[G]
There's no parallel, [D] it's stranger than [G] hell It pulled the rug from under [Em] my feet
[D] I'd been loving everything [G] inside [D] Still this time I knew the [G] feeling was right
[F] Cause I [G] wanted every day [D] to be a holiday [G] When it's in paradise
Well, [Am] love the [D] holiday [G] [D] [G] When it's your sugar and spice

[B] It's sweet as [A] a slow-mo camera [G] It's strange in its own [E] special [A] way
[B] Love, [G] love the [A] holiday
Now
[D] it don't seem strange that [C] the more I change [G] The more the feeling's [C] fast
[G] Understanding's [D] what a man [G] projects But love's what his poor soul [Em] desires
[D] I'd been loving everything [G] inside [D] Now this time I know the [G] feeling's right
[F] Cause I know [G] that every day [D] can be a holiday [G] When you're in paradise
[Am] Well, love the [D] holiday [C] When it's your sugar and spice
[G] Well, [A] love [D] the holiday [G] [D] When [G] you're in paradise
Well, [A] love [D] the holiday When [G] it's your sugar and spice
And all things [D]
