A
You
You don't know how lucky you are
G
Hanging with that girl on your arm
F A
But soon enough I'm taking my shot
Bang!
Once I get 'em locked in my sight
Doesn't mean I wasn't alright
I'm just seeing something I like
Woo hoo
[Chorus]
A G
I just wanna take
D A
Someone else's holiday
A G
Sometimes the grass is greener
D
And someone else's sugar
F G
Someone else's sugar

[Intro]
You
Went to school and found out you're dumb
Maybe you just had too much fun
Fell in love and think it's the one
A
You're like an angel
Got me feeling like a devil
G
And I wanna give you something if
F A
You promise that you won't tell
Woo hoo
[Chorus]
A G
I just wanna take
D A
Someone else's holiday
A G
Sometimes the grass is greener
D
And someone else's sugar
F G
Someone else's sugar
N/C

[Bridge]
A
I'm a recommend
You take that body to the other end
I really like you but I can't be friends
N/C (but i go down G F G then back into chorus with A)
Not with these hands of mine
[Chorus]
A G
I just wanna take
D A
Someone else's holiday
A G
Sometimes the grass is greener
D
And someone else's sugar
F G
Someone else's sugar
N/C

A G
I just wanna take

Someone else's holiday

And someone else's sugar
