intro:
D A E G
D A E G6 (riff2)
D A E G
they asked me to come down and watch the parade
D A E G
and to march down the street like the duracell bunny
D A E G
with a wink and a wave from the cavalcade
D A E G (riff2)
throwing out candy that looks like money
F#riff Bm A E/Ab G6 F#*
to people passing by that all seem to be going the other way
A D A E G
said won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
D A E G (riff2)
tripped over a dog in a choke-chain collar
D A E G (riff1)
people were shouting and pushing and saying
D A E G (riff1)
and when i traded a smoke for a food stamp dollar
D A E G (riff2)
a ridiculous marching band started playing
F#riff Bm A E/Ab G6 F#*
and got me singing along with some half-hearted victory song
A D A E G (riff1)
won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
D A E G (riff2)
won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
F# E A E G
won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
D A E G (riff1)
the trumpet has obviously been drinking
D A E G (riff2)
'cos he's fucking up even the simplest lines
D A E G (riff1)
i'd say it's a sight that's quite worth seeing
D A E G (riff2)
it's just that everyone's interest is stronger than mine
F#riff Bm A E/Ab G6 F#*
and when they clean the street i'll be the only shit that's left behind
A D A E G (riff1)
won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
D A E G (riff2)
won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
F# E A E G
won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
