That's because you have a return outside of a function.

Where did you get this code?  You haven't given us any indication of 
your level of python knowledge or what exactly your problem is so it's a 
little difficult to help you.
We don't just fix programs here, we provide guidance.  It's <tutor> not 
<freelanceprogrammers>.  We'd much rather give you a fishing pole and 
have you fix it yourself.
