[Verse]

     D
She talks like thunder
                     A
She really lets you know
          D
She keep changing the rules
                         A
And leave you nowhere to go
 
     E
She bore you rigid with 

the party line
      F#m        
She's so far left 
                 D          A  A
she's gonna get left behind
 
 
[Verse]

           D                        
He wanted six pretty white spots on 
                  A
each side of the dice 
             D                
He wants it all to be equal but 
                   A
he needs to throw twice 
 
               E
Now there's a guy in the 

corner with a smiling gaze
F#m              D   D  D
Turns to me and says
 
 
[Chorus]

             A
Gonna buy a hat
                         D
'Cos I think it's gonna rain
                      E
Got caught up coming here
                         A
Ain't gonna get caught again
 
                 A
I'm gonna buy a big one
                    D
Like that Mr. Gorbachov
                                E
And when it's raining all this crap
                        A  A
Oh my hat will keep it off
 
 
[Instrumental]

A    A    D    
A    E    A
 
 

[Chorus]

                    A
Oh I'm gonna buy a hat
                         D
'Cos I think it's gonna rain
                      E
Got caught up coming here
                         A
Won't gonna get caught again
 
                 A
I'm gonna buy a big one
                    D
Like that Mr. Gorbachov
                                E
And when it's raining all this crap
                        A
Oh my hat will keep it off
 
 
[Verse]

                             A
Now take a look at all them leaders
                      D
Desperation in their eyes
                       
Their tight face smiles 
              E
they can not hide it 
                              A
They know no more than you or I
 
 
[Chorus]

                    A
So I'm gonna buy a hat
                       D
'Cos here they come again
                             E
And everytime they start to blah-blah
                               A
It's you and me that gets the rain
 
             A    D    E    A
Gonna buy a hat
 
 
A    D    E    A
A    D    E    A
