Verse 1:
     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


Gb7                   Bm         A          E          G5         Gb7
   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?

Verse 2:
        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


Gb7                     Bm        A         E        G5            Gb7
    And got me singing 'long with some half-hearted victory song

Chorus:
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?
          Gb7       E           A       E      G5
Won't you follow me down to the rose parade?

Verse 3:
    D           A      E            G5
The trumpet has obviously been drinking
          D          A        E          G5
'Cos he's xxxxxxx 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


Gb7                        Bm                 A    E  
   And when they clean the street I'll be the only xxxx
         G5            Gb7
that's left behind

Chorus:
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?
          Gb7       E           A       E      G5
Won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
