VERSE ONE
E B
When I was younger I used to be wild
C#m
As wild as an elephant's child
A
No one could hold me down
E
No one could keep me around
B
Now it's your turn, take a shot
C#m
Baby show me everything that you got
A
Maybe you can keep me alive
E
Maybe you can get in my mind
A
But it's only a matter of time
CHORUS
E B
Before I run far away
C#m
I need to take a holiday
A
Maybe it's a fall from grace

I gotta find a new place

A holiday
C#m
I'll set off on a new chase
A
I gotta see a new face
E
I need to take a holiday

My father, he was always wise
C#m
As wise as an elephant's eyes
A
He couldn't hold me down
E
He couldn't keep me around
B
So are you gonna take your shot?
C#m
It's the only one that you got
A
Maybe I'll go out on a limb
E
Maybe I'll jump in for a swim
A
When the lights go dim
CHORUS
E B
Before I run far away
C#m
I need to take a holiday
A
Maybe it's a fall from grace
E
I gotta find a new place

A holiday

I'll set off on a new chase
A
I gotta see a new face
E
I need to take a holiday
VERSE THREE
E B C#m A
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
E
A new start
B
I've broken too many hearts
C#m
And I don't have any clue where to go
I don't know
A
But maybe I'll be back someday after my holiday
E B
When I was younger I used to be wild
C#m
As wild as an elephant's child
A
And I don't think I'll ever change
E
I think I'm gonna stay the same
CHORUS
E B
Before I run far away
C#m
I need to take a holiday

I'll set off on a new chase

I gotta see a new face
E
I need to take a holiday
E
A new start
B
I've broken too many hearts
C#m
And I don't have any clue where to go
I don't know
A
But maybe I'll be back someday after my holiday
E
All of the wasted time
A
The hours that were left behind
C#m
answers that we'll never find
A
They don't mean a thing tonight
E, A, C#m, A until end

No capo, if you watch them do it live.

Hey thanks for the great chords. Personally, I love your version. I just played it alongside the original and it fits perfectly. I would only add that I like to move quickly from the C#m to B to A on the "Maybe(C#m) it's a fall from(B) Grace(A)" part. But otherwise, superb!
