Em C G When the slow parade went past Em C G When it felt so good you knew it couldn't last Em C G D/F# And all too soon the end was gonna come without a warning Em C G And you'd have to just go home And the way it all went by And somebody said come on, it's getting late And you thought the world might end If you just looked the other way And now you wish that you had stayed D Em C And there's so much more that you could see G if you just stick around D Em C And all the street light secrets whispering G Em for you to come back out Chorus: C Oh no G D Em There's so much more that you need to work out C Oh no G D C You don't want that parade to leave you now And the days are all the same In a town so big and no one knows your name And the people fade away And all the stars are just a flicker And you're left there all alone Chorus: And there's so much more that You could see if you just stick around And all the street light secrets Whispering for you to come back out Oh no, there's so much more That you need to work out Oh no, and you don't want That parade to leave you now When the music's over But the song stays in your head Chorus: Oh no, there's so much more That you need to work out Oh no, and you don't want That parade to leave you now Yeah, well there's so much more that You need to work out Yeah, and you don't want That parade to leave you now You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsC D Em F# G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
