Intro:

D (Dsus4 D) A E G

Fills played throughout:

  D Dsus4 D A E    G
e-------------10-9-7---3-2-3-2-0------
B--------------------------------3----
G-------------------------------------

It's sometimes that I think and sometimes this:

  D Dsus4 D A E    G
e-------------10-9-7------------------
B----------------------3-2-3-2-0------
G--------------------------------2----

Both fills work in all spots where these chords are played, but you'll 
have to listen to see what's more accurate.

Verse 1

       D          A             E           G
They asked me to come down and watch the parade
    D               A              E        G
To march down the street like the Duracell bunny
       D           A             E    G
With a wink and a wave from the cavalcade
D             A          E          G
Throwing out candy that looks like money
F#                Bm           A         E          G     
To people passing by that all seem to be going the other way
A                  D        A           E      G
     So won't you follow me down to the rose parade?

Verse 2

         D      A        E           G
Tripped over a dog in a choke chain collar
D             A           E           G
People were shouting and pushing and saying
        D        A           E           G
When I traded a smoke for a food stamp dollar
    D         A        E             G
A ridiculous marching band started playing
F#               Bm         A           E       G
  Got me singing along with some half-hearted victory song
A           D         A           E     G
     Won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
           D         A           E     G
Won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
            F#      Bm           A      E       G
Won't you follow me down to the rose parade?

Verse 3
       
       D         A     E           G
The trumpet has obviously been drinking
            D          A        E          G
Cause he's f***ing up even the simplest lines
     D          A            E             G
I'd say it's a sight that's quite worth seeing
                 D         A            E           G 
It's just that everyone's interest is stronger than mine
F#                          Bm               A     E
  And when they clean the street I'll be the only s*** 
           G             A
   that's left behind
           D         A           E     G
Won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
           D         A           E     G
Won't you follow me down to the rose parade?
           F#        Bm          A      E      G
Won't you follow me down to the rose parade?

Note:  Elliott is playing a 12 string I think, and it does sound more 
accurate, but a six-string is fine to play along or play by yourself.
