Have fun ;)
The Parade, by The Knife
DIn the middle of nowhere,
When we're looking for Asomething,
 Then we Graise our Aheads for the Dcolour red ,
I am too a Dspirit,
And a Awanderer ,
And I Gwelcomed the Adew as Dmuch as you did,
(Instrumental interlude)
D     A     G  A  D
D     A     G  A  D
DWhen we’re looking for brushwood, 
In the nearest Aneighbourhood,
 Then we Gfollow the Asky with the Deye,
 We search Dvegetation, 
And surprised by the Arain ,
We're Gstumbling, Atripping Dhome again,
(Instrumental interlude)
D     A     G  A  D
D     A     G  A  D
(Chorus x2)
DIn the middle of nowhere, 
When we're looking for Asomething ,
Then we Graise our Aheads for the Dcolour red ,
I am too a Dspirit and a Awalker, 
And I Gwelcomed the Adew as Dmuch as you did.
We found the Dlittle man and his Aaeroplane,
 But we Gnever lAocated the Danimal,
 Examined the Ddirty ground,
 Like it’d Anever been done,
The Gmodern Aexploring of Dnineteen ninety one.
(Instrumental outro)
D     A     G  A  D
D     A     G  A  D

The Parade, by The Knife

In the middle of nowhere,

When we're looking for something,

G A D

 Then we raise our heads for the colour red ,

I am too a spirit,

And a wanderer ,

G A D

And I welcomed the dew as much as you did,

(Instrumental interlude)

D A G A D

When we’re looking for brushwood,

In the nearest neighbourhood,

G A D

 Then we follow the sky with the eye,

 We search vegetation,

And surprised by the rain ,

G A D

We're stumbling, tripping home again,

(Instrumental interlude)

D A G A D

(Chorus x2)

In the middle of nowhere,

When we're looking for something ,

G A D

Then we raise our heads for the colour red ,

D A

I am too a spirit and a walker,

G A D

And I welcomed the dew as much as you did.

D A

We found the little man and his aeroplane,

G A D

 But we never located the animal,

 Examined the dirty ground,

 Like it’d never been done,

G A D

The modern exploring of nineteen ninety one.

(Instrumental outro)
