Written by: Philip Oakey, Jo Callis, Philip Adrian Wright
From: "Dare" (1981)

Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Standard

The basic chords in the verses are F and G and for down-to-earth campfire
singalong that might well be enough. I included the transitional chords 
from the keyboard in [ brackets ], too.
