Easter Parade

[G]Is all that we've become,
Just nothing but h[C]ats and bags
We're waiting for t[Am]axi cabs

So you light cigarettes
And i'm ta[G]king drags

In the a[G]ir, a sea of words,
That didn't come[C] soon enough
In my mi[Am]nd a railway station
And a t[G]icket stub

And it is [C]easter in the town
I can hear as they st[G]rike off the bell
We're listening to s[Am]ome old man
Say he came back to life with a h[G]ole in his head

And now the s[C]unday school is gathered Together in p[G]ink and in blue
They're heralding ang[Am]els for you
But not for [D7]me

They're singing
[C]Gloria in exc[G]elsis
[Am]Deo d[D7]eo

[C]Gloria in exc[G]elsis
But t[Am]here's no,
There[D7]'s no     h[G]ope

And i am gr[G]ateful for the things
That you've tried to s[C]how to me dear
But there no ar[Am]cadia
No alby and theres no je[G]rusalem here

And undernea[G]th your pastures green
There's earth and there [C]ash

And theres bone
And there are th[Am]ings that dissapear
Into it and then[G] they are gone

And there is li[C]ght that hits the sky
And then it is m[G]idnight again
And there is my m[Am]other, my father,
And you and we are all impe[G]rmanent

And on the gr[C]een they tell their tales
About how even the d[G]ead can come back
I just dont beli[Am]eve in that

So you can[D7] keep on singing

[C]Gloria in excl[G]elsis
[Am]Deo d[D7]eo

[C]Gloria in exc[G]elsis
[Am]But there's no,
[D7]There's no     ho[G]pe

T[C]here's no such thing
T[G]here's no such thing
T[C]here's no such thing
T[D7]here's no such thing
T[C]here's no such thing
T[G]here's no such thing
T[C]here's no such thing
T[D7]here's no such thing as gho[G]sts
