Rose Parade

 
     D           A             E            G5 
They asked me to come down and watch the parade 
       D              A               E            G5 
And to march down the street like the duracell bunny 
       D          A             E     G5 
With a wink and a wave from the cavalcade 
D            A          E             G5 
Throwing out candy that looks like money 

F#7                   Bm         A          E/G#       G5         F#7* 
   To people passing by that all seem to be going the other way 
A              D         A            E       G5 
Said won't you follow me down to the rose parade? 
 

 
        D      A        E              G5 
Tripped over a dog in a choke-chain collar 
D           A            E             G5 
People were shouting and pushing and saying 
           D        A           E             G5 
And when I traded a smoke for a food stamp dollar 
    D        A        E                G5 
A ridiculous marching band started playing 

F#7                     Bm        A         E/G#     G5            F#7* 
    And got me singing 'long with some half-hearted victory song 
 

 
A           D         A           E        G5 
  Won't you follow me down to the rose parade? 
          D         A           E        G5 
Won't you follow me down to the rose parade? 
          F#7       E           A       E      G5 
Won't you follow me down to the rose parade? 
 

 
    D           A      E            G5 
The trumpet has obviously been drinking 
          D          A        E          G5 
'Cos he's fucking up even the simplest lines 
    D          A            E              G5 
I'd say it's a sight that's quite worth seeing 
               D          A           E               G5 
It's just that everyone's interest is stronger than mine 

F#7                        Bm                 A    E/G# 
   And when they clean the street I'll be the only shit 
         G5            F#7* 
That's left behind 
 

 
A           D         A           E       G5 
  Won't you follow me down to the rose parade? 
          D         A           E       G5 
Won't you follow me down to the rose parade? 
          F#7       E           A       E      G5 
Won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
