Holiday The Get Up Kids
Holiday Acoustic - The Get Up Kids
Someone requested that I tab this song into an acoustic version so I gave it a
shot. I don't know that The Get Up Kids have ever actually played this song
acoustically but these chords can also be used for the rhythm to the electric
version.
Beneath the chords I included a tab of how to play this acoustically with my
version of the lead/melody included in the rhythm chords.
Tuning: Standard
Chords used:
E - 022100
C#m - x46654
[G#m]A - [-] [466444]x02220
[F#m]B - [-] [244222]x24442
[E]What became of everyone I u[C#m]sed to know?
[Abm]Where did our respectable con[A]victions go?
[E]Your words donâ??t match the story that you[C#m]r actions show
[Abm] But what do I kno[A]w?

[C#m]I thought that youâ??d b[B]e one not to f[A]orget
[C#m]Rememberingâ??s no[B]t helping yo[A]u yet
Say [E]goodnight
Mean [C#m]goodbye
I know you [A]think my life will s[B]top when youâ??re[C#m] away[E]
[A]Maybe I can [B]see you on
[E]Holidays, [C#m]worlds away
[A]Iâ??ve never fo[B]rgotten all ou[C#m]r yesterday[E]s
Iâ??[A]m lucky if weâ?[B]?re speaking on the
[E]Holidays
[C#m] [Abm] [A]
[E]The evidence presents itself ac[C#m]cusingly
Your [Abm]absence speaking everything you [A]think of me
[E]Now that I am faced with oppor[C#m]tunity
[Abm] Youâ??re not rememb[A]ering
[F#m] Iâ??m not askin[Abm]g yo[A]u anyway
[C#m]And even if you [B]ever could cave [A]in
I [C#m]wouldnâ??t kno[B]w where to [A]begin
Say [E]goodnight
Mean [C#m]goodbye
I know you [A]think my life will s[B]top when youâ??re[C#m] away[E]
[A]Maybe I can [B]see you on
[E]Holidays, [C#m]worlds away

This is another version I created on acoustic that is very similar to the one
above except it includes some lead/melody for those wishing for an acoustic
version that sounds more like the album.
