[Bm]
They came from the hills, and they came from the valleys and the plains,
Scuttling the cold, in the heat and the snow and in the rain,
Came to here in vain, lay their minds away.
[E] [A]
We're all following a strange melody, we're all a-strumming the [D] finest tune,
[F#m] We're following the time, [A]
[F#m] we're following the time,
And still [A] in the noon party, then we dance in
[F#m]
[C#m]
[F#m] [C#m]
[Bm]
the evening.
They came from the south, from the west and the north and from the east,
Waiting for the man, like a parish, he's waiting for the priest,
Long to here in vain, lay their minds away.
[E] [A]
We're all following a strange melody, we're all a-strumming the finest tune,
[F#m] We're following the time, [A]
[F#m] we're following the time,
And we dance beneath [A] the noon party, then we dance beneath the noon.
[F#m]
[C#m]
[F#m] [C#m]
[Bm]
The day in the dream, he seduced everybody in the land,
Fire in his eyes, and the fear was a weapon in his hand,
So they lay in vain, lay their minds away.
[E] [A]
We're all following a strange melody, we're all a [D]-strumming the finest tune,
[F#m] We're following the time,
[A]
[D]
[F#m] we're following the time,
And we dance beneath the noon, dance beneath the noon,
And we dance beneath the noon.
