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
