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