Version 1[Intro] G Gmaj7 x2 G Cm Em Fools on parade cavort and carry on Bm For waiting eyes Am Bm Ones you would rather be beside than in front of Am Bm But she's never been the kind to be hollowed by the stares [Instrumental] Em Bm G D x4 [Verse] Em Bm G D She swam out of tonight's phantasm Em Bm G D Em Bm Grabbed my hand and made it very clear G D Em Bm G D There's absolutely nothing for us here Em Bm It's a magnolia celebration G D To be attended on a Wednesday night Em Bm It's better that than get a reputation G D As a miserable little tyke Em Bm At least that's the conclusion G D Em Bm G She came to in this overture Em G Bm [Chorus] Bm Em The secret door swings behind us Am She's saying nothing G Bm She's just giggling along [Verse] Em Bm G D Her arms were folded most indignant Em Bm G D Em Bm Not looking like she was soon to leave G D Em Bm G D I had to squint in order to believe Em Bm And then like a butler pushing on a bookshelf G D And unveiling the unexpected Em Bm G D I who was earlier reluctant was suddenly embarrassed and corrected.

Em G Bm [Chorus] Bm Em The secret door swings behind us Am She's saying nothing Em She's just giggling along Bm Em Even if they were to find us Am Bm D I wouldn't notice, I'm completely occupied [Outro] G Cm At all the fools on parade Em Bm Cavort and carry on for waiting eyes Am Bm Ones you would rather be beside than in front of Am But she's never been the kind D To be hollowed by the stares G Cm Em Fools on parade frolic and fuck about Bm Am Bm To make a gaze turn to a scribble on a page by a picture Am That holds her absence D But you're daft to think she'd care G Cm Em Bm Fools on parade Am Bm Am D Fools on parade G Cm Fools on parade Em Bm Am Bm Am D Conduct a sing-along
