Chords for Bo and Peep - Rise of the Brighton Surf

_ _ [Am] World War III [C] hovers over us like a black [D] cloud,
and China [F] isn't far behind.
_ [Am] I'm going to talk [E] about the _ Mazarokers
and the Sardau [Em]-Caesars who are blind.
[F#] _
_ [A] _ _ [Am] _ [C] There's a town [D] called Brighton.
_ _ [F] _ _
_ [Am] It's by _ [C] the deep [Em] blue sea. _ _ _
_ [Am] Leather _ jackets [C] and Bill _ [D] Haley records.
_ [F] Oh yes, _ [A] that's all [E] that the eye [G] [A] can see.
_ [Am]
Nonetheless, of course, you're [D] Rudolph Valentino.
He's been a [Dm] rocker forever.
_ [E] [A] Now there was [C] a mob [D] named Tony.
_ [F] Let me talk about Tony now.
Who [Am] had _ [C]
a bird [E] named [Em] Jill. _ _
_ _ [E] [A] He used to ride [C] her on [D] his scooter.
_ [F] Yes, he did.
_ [Am] And this used to give her [E]
a [F#] very [A] jet-lit thrill.
And here [Am] comes the song.
_ [G] [A] Now a group [C] of _ wild [D] _ rockers
_ [F] _
_ were [A] on their [Am] way [C] to _ _ [E] Brighton town. _ _
_ [A] And they saw our [C] friends Jill [D] and Tony.
Yes, they [F] did.
You know what right happened [Am] there?
Why, they _ [B]
mowed [Bm] Jill and [Am] Tony down.
And that [E] night, they had a council of [A] war.
[Am] We're going [C] to seek [D] revenge on them.
_ _ [F] _
_ _ [A] Oh, they were too young [C] to get [Am] such a horrible [E] fate. _ _ _
_ [Am] They [A] hadn't even seen [C] the latest [D] pop music magazines.
_ [F] No, they didn't.
[Dm] And [Am] they had never, ever been to the [E] Orange [A] Free State.
[E] And so a big crowd gathered and [A] they started
walking _ [C] _
[G] down [D] those Brighton streets.
[F] Yeah.
_ _ They had chewing [C] gum in [G] _ _ [Em] either hand. _ _
_ We're [Am] going to drive [A] the _ rockers [D] into the sea.
Oh, [F] yes, we will.
[Am] We're going to take them [E] away _ from [A] the [Am] land.
During this [Dm] whole time, a [Am] spaceship is watching the whole [F] scene.
And a [D] Martian said [A] to everyone,
[Dm] _ _ [F] _
_ [D] I think [A] you should stop [C] your _ [Bm] fighting now.
_ [Em] _ _
[D] _ _ [A] Remember that this rainbow [C] is red, white, blue, [Em] green and yellow.
[Fm] _ _
_ [Bm] And [A] don't forget about [C] the _ [E] purple cow.
_ [F] Ladies and gentlemen, if you think this is a [A] phonograph record,
you are [Am] perfectly right.
[E] The song is about [A] over.
The next track is a [Em] very good song.
I thank [A] you so much for listening to the [C] only 81-year-old [D] hipster in this country.
Thanks so much.
_ [Dm]
Remember, _ [Am] the house [C] of the _ [Em] rising.
_ _ _ _ [E] _
_ [Am] _ Happy Easter.
_ [C] Happy Thanksgiving.
_ [D] _ _ Whatever [Am] happened to Ricky Valance?
_ _ _ _ [E] _
_ [G] _ [Am] Whatever happened to?
_ [E] _
Whatever [A] happened to?
I can't do anymore.
I'll stop being [C] dirty, man.
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
