{V1}

Would you join a slow marching band?

And take pleasure in your leaving

as the ferry sails and tears are dried
G Em G
and cows come home at evening
{V2}
D C D
Could you get behind a slow marching band?
F#m G
And join together in the passing
D Bm A A
of all we shared through yesterdays
G Em G
in sorrows neverlasting
{Chorus}
G D
Take a hand and take a bow
C G Bm
You played for me; that's all for now,
Em G D
oh, and never mind the words
G-D Em Am C
just hum along and keep on going

Walk on slowly -

Don't say goodbye, love
G C D
I won't remind you
{V2}

Dream of me as the nights draw cold
F#m G
still marking time through Winter
D Bm A A
You paid the piper and called the tune
Bm G Em A A-A
and you marched the band aw - ay
{Chorus}

Take a hand and take a bow
C G Bm
You played for me; that's all for now,

oh, and never mind the words

just hum along and keep on going
