[Verse 1]
CHiked up to Sydney in the week before Christmas
CIt was thirty-eight degrees in the shade
CI bought a second-hand Morris for a cheap two-twenty
CAnd drove it down to Adelaide
She bFoiled for an hour twenty miles out of Euston
I Cthought that heat would never end
CBut I knew I'd be home for Christmas with my Sandy
And a F5few eE5xtra D5dollarC5s to G5spend
[Chorus]
GHome and broken hearted
I've been Cpasted to the telephone
AmBoxing Day Embreak was Fwasted sitting Ghome on my Cown
The G5beer we bought fF5or ChG5ristmas ran dry F5this afternooG5n
And on the C5radio it's New Year's Eve
What a Dmlow down Emtime of the Fyear to pack your Gluggage and lCeave
[Verse 2]
CI drove it to the buyer just as fast as I could go
CI was talking to his teenage son
CI sure hope it lasted for the poor little bastard
CAt least until he'd had some fun
I cFaught a taxi homeward with great anticipation
CThinkin' all you have to do is try
CThere was a note propped up against the dressing table mirror
"Dear F5Jimmy,E5 it's D5over, C5goodbG5ye!"

[Verse 3]
DWent to a party, tried to drink myself happy
DThe steaks were washed away in the rain
DFinished up in bed with an old acquaintance
She'll Cnever be my friend again
And Geveryone was asking me where's the little woman
Rolled Dhome before the rain could stop
DI've been sitting for days reading Cpre-Christmas papers
With my G5heels F#5on theE5 tablD5e-toA5p
[Chorus]
AHome and broken hearted
I've been Dpasted to the telephone
BmBoxing Day F#mbreak was Gwasted sitting Ahome on my Down

And on the D5radio it's New Year's Eve
What a Emlow down F#mtime of the yGear to pack your Aluggage and lBmeave
