I wasn't sure if it was Marx or Hitler,  that was in this year
          Am                      F    G                   C        
I hadn't been to Brighton for a while,  so it wasn't too clear
     Am            F    G                  C     
So imagine my surprise,  when I opened my eyes,  
           Am                F   G                  C        
To find it was the Liberals who,  were hip to sloganeer

           C                 Am           F              G             
I'm out tonight and can't decide between Soviet hip or British pride
           C                 Am           F            G          C
I'm out tonight and can't decide between Soviet hip or  British pride

So help me out

            C     Am    F  G                         C      
They wore enamel badges of - David Steel on their sleeves
             Am        F    G                   C        
And nuclear power no thanks, not sure and yes please
           Am             F    G                           C     
And their faces were two fold,  and their teeth they were gold
                     Am         F   G                     C        
And they wore their pinstripe suits,  with a rip at the knee

           C                 Am           F              G             
I'm out tonight and can't decide between Soviet hip or British pride
           C                Am            F            G          C
I'm out tonight and can't decide between Soviet hip or  British pride  
C Am F G | C Am F G |

            C Am F G |            C Am F G |
So help me out,       so help me out
     Bb               F        Bb                 F
So Blackpool help me out, so Scarborough help me out
