The Big Parade Lyrics & Tabs by Jonah Matranga
The Big Parade
guitar chords lyrics
I've just come back from the war
I'm angry and tired and bored
Scarred by the things that I saw
Still don't feel like I'm home
Don't wanna go back
But I don't wanna stay
I'm still waiting for
the big parade
Just before dawn
Doesn't feel like last fall
Feels like a friend I've lost touch with
Who I hoped wouldn't call
Blankets and clothes
Pictures of wives
The glow in the burning
Blankets and clothes
Pictures of wives
The glow in the burning
We saw from the sky
When I woke up
All swaddled in white
I wanted my mother
Wanted her to tell me why I was alive
I'd write every night
Just before bed
For a while there I stopped
Did you think I was dead?
The truth of it is
I was just scared
Scared to come back
I wanted to stay
I'm still still waiting
For the big parade
don't wanna go back
don't wanna stay
I'm still waiting
Still waiting for...
The big parade
