Springtime for Hitler
(Melvin Brooks) 

(Based upon my recollection of the 1968 film version, words taken from another site)

Introduction  

C  (instruments playing (C-G-A-B) x 3  then C-E (story)

Germany was having trouble
What a sad, sad story

D (instruments playing (D-A-B-C#) x 3  then D-F# (glory)

Needed a new leader to restore
Its former glory

Em7                          A7

Em7                           A7

Where could that man be?

 D            D7/C        Bm       D/A

We looked around and then we found

D

The man for you and me 
 
G7   G9   G7

And now it's...
