E                         D              A    
Boston at last and the plane's touching down
E                          D             A
Our hostess is handing the hot towels around
F#m                     C#m             Bm   Bm7
From a terminal gate to a black limousine
E                              D          A
It's a ten minute ride to the Holiday Inn

E                         D              A   
Boredom's a pastime that one soon acquired
E                         D              A   
Where you get to the stage where you're not even tired
F#m                     C#m             Bm   Bm7
Kicking your heels till the time comes around
E                          D            A    A/B  A/C#
To pick up your bags and head out of town

Refrain—
G                  D                A
Slow down Joe, I'm a rock and roll man
G                     D                 A      A/B  A/C#
I've twiddled my thumbs in a dozen odd bands
D                               E 
And you ain't seen nothing till you've been
F#m          E            D       A      G      F#m    F   
In a motel baby like the Holiday Inn

—Instrumental— (verse chords)

Refrain—
G                  D                A
Slow down Joe, I'm a rock and roll man
G                     D                 A      A/B  A/C#
I've twiddled my thumbs in a dozen odd bands
D                               E 
And you ain't seen nothing till you've been
F#m          E            D       A      G      F#m    F  G  A 
In a motel baby like the Holiday Inn

—Fade out—
 A      G      F#m    F  G  A
