[Eb]
Standing in the dark at Southampton, trying to get to Holland or France,
The man in the Mac said, you gotta go back, you know they didn't even give us a chance,
Christ you know [Ab] it ain't easy, you know how hard [Eb] it can be,
The way [Bb] things are going, they're gonna [Eb] crucify me.
Finally made the plane into Paris, on their moon and down by the Seine,
Peter Brown called to say, you can make it okay, you can get married in Gibraltar,
This man, Christ you know it ain't [Ab] easy, you know how hard [Eb] it can be,
The way [Bb] things are going, they're gonna [Eb] crucify me.
Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton, talking in our beds for a week,
The newspaper said, say what you're doing in bed, I said we're only trying to get us some peace,
Christ you know it [Ab] ain't easy, you know how [Eb] hard it can be,
The way things are [Bb] going, they're gonna [Eb] crucify me.
[Ab] Saving up your money for a rainy day, giving all your clothes to charity,
Last night the wife said, oh boy when you're [Bb] dead, you don't take nothing with you but your soul,
Made [Eb] the lightning trip to Vienna, eating chocolate cake in a vat,
The newspaper said, she's gone to his head, it looked just like the ghouls in France,
Christ you know it ain't [Ab] easy, you know how hard [Eb] it can be,
The way [Bb] things are going, they're gonna [Eb] crucify me.
Got the early plane back to London, 58 guns tied in a sack,
A man from the press said, we wish you success, it's good to have the both of you back,
Christ you know it [Ab] ain't easy, you know how hard it can [Eb] be,
The way things are [Bb] going, they're gonna [Eb] crucify me.
The way things are [Bb] going, they're gonna [Eb] crucify me.
