Verse
E B
They're out of sorts in Sunderland
E C#7
And terribly cross in Kent,
F#m B
They're dull in Hull
E C#7
And the Isle of Mull
F# B7
Is seething with discontent,
E B
They're nervous in Northumberland
E A
And Devon is down the drain,
G#
They're filled with wrath
C#m
On the firth of Forth
F# B7
And sullen on Salisbury Plain,
Bm E A
In Dublin they're depressed, lads,
C#7 F#m
Maybe because they're Celts
B B7
For Drake is going West, lads,
F# B7
And so is everyone else.
F#7 B B
Hurray, hurray, hurray!
RIFF B7 - strum once
Misery's here to stay.
[Chorus 1]
N.C. E F#m B E E7
There are bad times just around the corner,
A C#7 F#m
There are dark clouds hurtling through the sky
B B7
And it's no good whining
E C#m
About a silver lining
F# F#7 B B7
For we know from experience that they won't roll by,
E E7
With a scowl and a frown
A A7
We'll keep our peckers down
F# F#7 B B7
And prepare for depression and doom and dread,
E F#m B E A G#
We're going to unpack our troubles from our old kit bag
C#m F# B E B E
And wait until we drop down dead.
[Verse 2]
E B
From Portland Bill to Scarborough
E C#7
They're querulous and subdued
F#m B
And Shropshire lads
E C#7
Have behaved like cads
F# B7
From Berwick-on-Tweed to Bude,
E B
They're mad at Market Harborough
E A
And livid at Leigh-on-Sea,
G#
In Tunbridge Wells
C#m
You can hear the yells
F# B7
Of woe-begone bourgeoisie.
Bm E A
We all get bitched about, lads,
C#7 F#m
Whoever our vote elects,
B B7
We know we're up the spout, lads.
F# B7
And that's what England expects.
F#7 B B
Hurray, hurray, hurray!
RIFF B7 - strum once
Trouble is on the way.
[Chorus 2]
N.C. E F#m B E E7
There are bad times just around the corner,
A C#7 F#m
The horizon's gloomy as can be,
B B7
There are black birds over
E C#m
The grayish cliffs of Dover
F# F#7 B B7
And the rats are preparing to leave the C#BC
E E7
We're an unhappy breed
A A7
And very bored indeed
F# F#7 B B7
When reminded of something that Nelson said.
E F#m B E A G#
While the press and the politicians nag nag nag
C#m F# B E B E
We'll wait until we drop down dead.
[Verse 3]
p.m. E B
From Colwyn Bay to Kettering
E C#7
They're sobbing themselves to sleep,
F#m B
The shrieks and wails
E C#7
In the Yorkshire dales
F# B7
Have even depressed the sheep.
E B
In rather vulgar lettering
E A
B very disgruntled group
G#
Have posted bills
C#m
On the Cotswold Hills
F# B7 - back to open strum
To prove that we're in the soup.
Bm E A
While begging Kipling's pardon
C#7 F#m
There's one thing we know for sure
B B7
If England is a garden
F# B7
We ought to have more manure.
F#7 B B
Hurray, hurray, hurray!
RIFF B7 - strum once
Suffering and dismay.
[Chorus 3 - 3/4 timing]
N.C. E F#m B E E7
There are bad times just around the corner
A C#7 F#m
And the outlook's absolutely vile,
B B7
There are Home Fires smoking
E C#m
From Windermere to Woking
F# F#7 B B7
And we're not going to tighten our belts and smile, smile, smile,
E E7
At the sound of a shot
A A7
We'd just as soon as not
F# F#7 B B7
Take a hot water bottle and go to bed,
E F#m B E A G#
We're going to un-tense our muscles till they sag sag sag
C#m F# B E B E
And wait until we drop down dead.
[Chorus 4 - normal timing]
E F#m B E E7
There are bad times just around the corner,
A C#7 F#m
We can all look forward to despair,
B B7
It's as clear as crystal
E C#m
From Bridlington to Bristol
F# F#7 B B7
That we can't save democracy and we don't much care
E E7
If the Reds and the Pinks
A A7
Believe that England stinks
F# F#7 B B7
And that world revolution is bound to spread,
E F#m B E A G#
We'd better all learn the lyrics of the old 'Red Flag'
C#m F# B E B E
And wait until we drop down dead.
