walkin down the highway

When the night parades, (walking down the highway)
Lyra Pendragon
intro
 D                                  A
when the night parades
 D                                A    
as we chant and sing
As we love And grow 
           
D                                   A
we find our friends with doubt
G                                  D
We laugh with peace and shout 
G         G#m     Em
still make our way along
Still let our friends be strong

Em   D
Moves on
It Isnt wrong

walkdown
Em      G (g#m)      A

|D                         A |                   D                 A
in our night parades against the facist USA
D                   E
pluck the facist USA
D                           E
I didnt say I'd like to stay
D                                              E
Brought down by the system’s sympathy


(mellow back down)

in the nazi USA
D                                             E
you fascist picks have come to town
D                                            E
your mask does nought        to hide your crown
Pluck the fascist USA

I want no facist USA

Have you Walked               down this highway?


Rezolve - D

(chorus)

Verse content ideas :

we fight against fear
Duck the fascist USA
with our friends with doubt
Duck the fascist USA
with our night parades
Walkin down 
With our night parades
The highwayyyyyyy


we chant and sing and dance for love
Walking down
when the night parades
The highway
Verse
when we all weep 
The highway
our fears confirmed
Walkin down
our friends are lost
The highway
pulled from their loves
Walkin down
ripped bleeding faces
The highway
beware of masks
when the night parades
Chorus
(etc, marching chants work well here)
