Hoops With Fidel

G          F              G     
Hoops with Fidel, we keep 
    F
bouncing ideas
    G            F
And holding back tears of joy!
G            F           G      
Endless long dinners and 
     F
glimmers of genius
    G          F
And endless dictation to tape!

[Chorus]

F
Communism on a beach
        Em
It’s so peachy
        Dm
I could take it home
                       C
And serve it up for my sweet
Dm   Em
With cream

F
Communism on a beach
                 Em
If we could just bottle it

And send it ‘round the world
    Dm
And everyone could revolutionize in
C     Dm Em
Peace by piece

F
Congo and Bolivia
Continúa después del anuncio
Em
Vietnam, Angola
Dm
Let’s all drink from the same bottle
   C   Dm  Em
Of rum and smoke

F
Let’s bounce that beach ball ‘round 
the place
Em
Let’s bounce up a better human race
        Dm
Now the whole world is a great big
         C    Dm Em
Bouncing ball of joy

[Verse]

G            F             G    
Hoops with Fidel, they get 
      F
faster and faster
    G         F
And spell out disaster for me
G            F
Hoops with Ernesto
   G           F
He runs hoops around me
    G           F
And drags me to fund his demise

[Chorus]

F
Communism on the beach
             Em
You can just feel the heat
                      Dm
That’s coming down on me
                             C    
From every side and point of view 
Dm    Em
right now

F
Communism on the beach
                 Em
If we could just bottle it

And send it ‘round the world
    Dm
And everyone could revolutionize in
C     Dm Em
Peace by piece

F
Congo and Bolivia
Em
Vietnam, Angola
Dm
Let’s all drink from the same bottle
   C   Dm  Em
Of rum and smoke

F
Let’s bounce that beach ball ‘round 
the place
Em
Let’s bounce up a better human race
        Dm
Now the whole world is a great big
         C    Dm Em
Bouncing ball of opportunity
