Verse 1
Em          C                G      D
When the slow parade went past

Em          C               G          D
When it felt so good you knew it couldn't last

Em          C               G          D
And all too soon the end was gonna come without a warning

Em          C                G         D
And you'd have to just go home
Verse 2
Em         C              G         D
And the way it all went by

Em         C              G         D
And somebody said "come on its getting late"

Em          C                    G                 D
And you thought the world might end if you just looked the other way

Em          C                    G              D
And now you wish that you had stayed
Pre-Chorus
Em              C               G                 D
And there's so much more that you could see if you just stick around

Em              C                  G               D                    Em
And all the street light secrets whispering 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                
You don't want that parade to leave you now
Verse 3
Em         C              G         D
And the days are all the same

Em        C                G        D
And the town so big and no one knows your name

Em        C               G   
And the people fade away

          D
And all stars are just a flicker

Em            C             G       D
And you're left there all alone
Pre-Chorus
Em              C               G                 D
And there's so much more that you could see if you just stick around

Em              C                  G               D                    Em
And all the street light secrets whispering 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                
You don't want that parade to leave you now

Em          C               G
When the music's over

          D                 C
But the song stays in your head

Oh no

         G                 D                    Em
