LYRICS
It was (C)June.
I was (G)ten.
I still (C)think of that (D)day now and (Em)then.
A pa (C)rade
and a (Em)girl
and a crowd of (C)thou (D)sands.
(G)She sat (C)straight
as a (G)queen.
On ly (C)eight, but so (D)proud and se (Em)rene,
how they (C)cheered!
How I (Em)stared
in that crowd of (C)thou (D)sands!
Then I (F)start ed to run and to call out her name as the (C)crowd on the (Em)road went wild!
I reached (Eb)out with my hand and looked up and then she (Dsus)smiled.
The pa (C)rade
trav eled (G)on.
With the (C)sun in my (D)eyes, she was (Em)gone.
But if (C)I
were still (Em)ten
in that crowd of (Em)thou sands,
I’d (Cmaj7)find her
a
(C)gain.
A pa (G)rade
pass ing (D)by.
It was (G)hot.
Not a (A)cloud in the (Bm)sky.
Then a (G)boy
caught my (Bm)eye
in a crowd of (G)thou (A)sands.
He was (G)thin.
Not too (D)clean.
There were (G)guards, but he (A)dodged in be (Bm)tween.
Yes, he (G)made
(A)him self (Bm)seen
in that crowd of (G)thou (A)sands!
Then he (C)called out my name and he start ed to run through the (G)sun and the (Bm)heat and crowd.
And I (Bb)tried not to smile, but I smiled...
and then he (A11)bowed.
The pa (G)rade
