Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Em][G][Bm][Em][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]I was
so busy [Em]wasting my [G]time
[C]I didn't notic[Am]e that
you'd changed [C]your mind
[D]And decided not[C] to [D]roa[G]m
But to [D]stay [Dsus4]at home[D]
And [G]much as I'll miss having you at my side
[C]Provided nothing unto
[Cm]ward should arise
We're [G]off in [D]the morning
[G]all set for the [C]day
[F#m]On the beach in Blu[B]e Anchor Bay

[Interlude 1]
[G]

[Verse 2]
[G]All of my friends, they go every year
[C]They take their gir[Am]lfriends
and their crates of [C]beer
[D]And while the sun[C] is [D]out[G]
They just [D]lark [Dsus4]about[D]
[G]No stately home to be traipsing around
[C]No one to tell you what you
[Cm]can or can't down
It's a [G]trip of a life[D]time,
an [G]annual foray
[Csus4]On the be[C]ach[F#m]
in [B]Blue Anchor Bay
[Em]

[Verse 3]
And the weather may not
always be the best
Which is fine if you don't
mind taking a vest
Not that [Am]rain on our parade
will bring us down
None in the [Em]least
We'll just [D]wait inside the
bus until it stops
Which for [C]some sat at the back
could mean a snog
There's gon[Em]na be

[Interlude 2]
For all to see
[D][G][D]
[G][C][Bm]
[Am][D][C][D][G][D]

[Verse 4]
[G]Five- a- side football, a dip in the sea
[C]Not least a lie down with a
[Cm]towel underneath
[G]Nothing quite [D]like what it's
[G]like being [C]away
[F#m]On the beach in Blu[B]e Anchor Bay

[Interlude 3]
[G]

[Verse 5]
[G]Then as the day ends checking around
[C]To make sure not[Bm]hing
has been [Am]left on the [C]ground
[D]It's on the bus[C] we'll go[G]
For the [D]journey [Dsus4]home[D]

[Verse 6]
[G]Some looking slightly a bit worse for wear
[C]Others in fine voice, arm[Cm]s in the air
Singing [G]here's to the nex[D]t
time we [G]all get [C]to play
[G]Here's to the nex[D]t time we a[G]ll get to p[F]lay
[C]On [F#m]the beach in Blue A[B]nchor Bay[Em][A]
[F#m]On the beach in Blu[B]e Anchor Bay

[Outro 1]
[G]
