Snoopy v The Red Baron

C                     F               C                     G7
After the turn of the century, in the clear blue skies over Germany
        C                         F
Came a roar and a thunder men had never heard
         G7                   C
Like the screamin' sound of a big war bird
C                F               C                    G7
Up in the sky, a man in a plane, Baron von Richthoven was his name
C                    F
Eighty men tried and eighty men died
            G7                     C
Now they're buried together on the countryside

chorus: 

C                           F
Ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty or more
    C                    G7
The bloody Red Baron was rollin' up the score
C                         F
Eighty men died tryin' to end that spree
       G7                  C
Of the bloody Red Baron of Germany

       C              F            C                        G7 
In the nick of time a hero arose-a funny looking dog with a big black nose
   C                    F
He flew into the sky to seek revenge
        G7                            C
But the Baron shot him down, "Curses, foiled again!" 

chorus:

    C                        F
Now Snoopy'd swore that he'd get that man
      C                             G7
So he asked the great pumpkin for a new battle plan
   C                          F
He challenged the German to a real dogfight
          G7                    C
While the Baron was laughing he got'im in his sight
    C                    F            C                          G7
The bloody Red Baron was in a fix, he tried everything, but he'd run out of tricks
C                         F
Snoopy fired once then he fired twice
        G7                   C
And the bloody Red Baron was spinnin' out of sight
