Biography:
On the 4th April 1981, history was to be made as four relatively unknown singers Mike Nolan, Cheryl Baker, Bobby G and Jay Aston, collectively known as Bucks Fizz, represented the UK at that year's Eurovision Song Contest.
Bucks Fizz performed the timeless classic tune Making Your Mind Up, together with the now famous skirt ripping dance routine. This was one of the most up-tempo songs of the evening, and with only two rounds of voting to go, it was a three-way tie between Germany.

Bucks Fizz Land Of Make Believe
Album: Are You Ready
Year: 1981
UK No 1
Tabbed by Jack Delonge
This original tuning of this song is slightly flat of standard so if you want to play along you have to
down tune half a half step. There is no guitar actually in the song but sounds good played on an acoustic/
electric with vocals.

Where do you go to dream
To a place, we all know
The land of make believe
