Welcome To The Black Parade

G            D/F#
When I was a young boy
Em             D
My father took me into the
C       G/B             Am     D
City to see a marching band

           G           D/F#
He said, "son when you grow up
      Em          D             C           G/B            Am        D
Would you be the saviour of the broken, the beaten and the damned?"
          G         D/F#
He said "will you defeat them
      Em          D             C           G/B                  Am       D
Your demons, and all the non believers, the plans that they have made?"
        G            D/F#
Because one day i'll leave you
   Em         D
A phantom to lead you in the
C          G/B              Am    D   G
Summer, to join the black parade"

( G  D/F#  Em  D  C  D )

     G               D/F#         D4/F        C
Sometimes I get the feeling she's watching over me
                   G                  D
And other times I feel like I should go
      G                 D/F#               D4/F          C
And through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets
                         G               D
And when you're gone we want you all to know

             G
We'll carry on
      D/F#   Em
We'll carry on
     D             C
And though you're dead and gone believe me
      D
Your memory will
      G
Carry on
      D/F#   Em
We'll carry on
    D      C
And in my heart I can't contain it
    D
The anthem won't explain it

   G              D/F#         D4/F     C
A woman sends you reeling from decimated dreams
                 G                D
Your misery and hate will kill us all
    G                 D/F#
So paint it black and take it back
     D4/F             C
Lets shout it loud and clear
               G
Defiant to the end
             D
We hear the call

         G
To carry on
      D/F#   Em
We'll carry on
      D            C
And though you're dead and gone believe me
       D
Your memory will
      G
Carry on
      D/F#   Em
We'll carry on
     D             C
And though you're broken and defeated
     D            D
Your weary widow marches

Bm                            Em
On and on we carry through the fears
Ooh oh ohhhh
Bm                         Em
Disappointed faces of your peers
Ooh oh ohhhh
C                         Cm

G
  Do or die

You can try,   you'll never break me
C                 D                      G
  You want it all,  you wanna play this part

I won't explain
D
  Or say i'm sorry
Em                D                     C
   I'm unashamed,   i'm gonna show my scars
              G
