Am G C
Through the narrow streets from a crooked home (a crooked home)
Dm C G
To the parade we run, only blocks to go
Am G C
I'll hold your hand Allie, you hold mine (you hold mine)
Dm C G
Or you'll be lost until the end of time
[Chorus]
F C
Allie put out your hand for some candy
F G
Allie pull in some coin on this west side street
F C
This parade it only happens annually
C G C
It only happens in this town of misery
C C/B
[Verse 2]
Am G C
You and me Allie, we're not afraid (we're not afraid)
Dm C G
Over time we'll drink and celebrate
Am G C
I'm reminded of the times of old (the times of old)
Dm C G
Over time this town's a cheerful song
C C/B
[Verse 3]
Am G C
Dull face inside is the one I've seen (one I've seen)
Dm C G
Well go on with me, we'll fit their dreams
Am G C
Don't run off Allie, stay close to me
Dm C G
If you wander off, don't come back to me
C C/B
[Chorus]
F C
Allie put out your hand for some candy
F G
Allie pull in some coin on this west side street
F C
This parade it only happens annually
C G C
It only happens in this town of misery
C C/B
[Verse 4]
Am G C
The marching band's familiar beat
Dm C G
Has us all dancing out on the street
Am G C
There's sweat in my eyes from the scorching sun
Dm C G
Oh, I feel music raining down on me
C C/B
[Chorus]
F C
Allie put out your hand for some candy
F G
Allie pull in some coin on this west side street
F C
This parade it only happens annually
C G C
It only happens in this town of misery
C C/B
[Chorus]
F C
Allie put out your hand for some candy
F G
Allie pull in some coin on this west side street

This parade it only happens annually

It only happens in this town of misery
