Cold Parade(Chords)

	        
D                          C              G  
I'm a man of alleyways and misty parks at night 
        D 
Call me Simms 
D                                      C 
You might've seen me strolling Central Park 
           G             D 
Or lurking south of the Thames 
Bm                                         F#m 
I'm terribly familiar in a quite forgetful way 
G                       C 
A face you swear you've seen before 
     G                  C 
But where you cannot say 
D 
Don't bother it's alright 
         C          G              D 
Come and join me in tonight's cold parade 
D 
Though I'm a harmless fellow 
          C                  G             D 
I've been known to scare the hell out of a dame 
D 
On an empty sidestreet 
          C                G            D 
Where the wind and she and I meet for a game 
Bm                                F#m 
She sees me and assumes i'm up to no good and it's true 
C                    G                 C              G   
But the only no good I'm up to is not knowing what to do 
D 
With this thing called my life 
       C                G             D 
So I'm sentenced to the night's cold parade 
D 
Well 'what sort of parade?' you ask 
     C              D          G 
Well don't expect a float or a band 
D                            C             G 
A broken majorette may bum a cigarette and offer 
        D 
You her hand 
Bm                                F#m 
Yeah it's not exactly pretty this collection of the lost 
G                      C 
You've heard about the nitty gritty 
G                        C 
Well here's how much it cost 
D 
It's gonna be bumpy alright 
         C          G              D 
Come and join me in tonight's cold parade 
D                                   C 
Now i've got an odd relationship to life 
            G          D 
And on that life and I agree 
D 
I'm a charming party guest 
C              G        D 
But i also get bored so easily 
D                              C 
Now if i had me a dirty little vocation 
    G            D  
I'd feel more at home 
D                             C 
See i only walk these streets because 
   G                             D 
My thoughts and I cannot be left alone 
Bm                             
See the crossword puzzles and playoff games  
    F#m 
and porno sites galore 
G                 C 
Cannot contain or ease the pain 
     G            C 
They don;'t work anymore 
Bm 
See by day i am a pillar 
       F#m 
But by night i tend to sway 
G                  C 
What happens after work 
G                      C 
Well it's too gruesome Lord to say 
Bm         
See by day i am a pillar 
       F#m 
But by night i tend to roar 
G                           C             G             C 
but nothing compares to the music of your knock upon my door 
D 
It's lonely here inside 
         C          G              D 
Come and join me in tonight's cold parade
