(single note strums)

         A
It was June.

       E
I was ten.

          A           B            E
I still think of that day now and then.

      A  B     E
A parade and a girl 

D              B
and a crowd of thousands



         A
She sat straight

       E
As a Queen

        A           B            E
Only eight, but so proud and serene. 

         A
How they cheered 

B      E
How I stared

D              B
In that crowd of thousands


        D
Then I started to run 

        A
And to call out her name

D                              A
As the crowd on the road went wild. 

          C
I reached out with my hand

(optional note G on "up")
and looked up 

               B
And then she smiled 



E      A
The parade

          E
traveled on

           A         B            E
With the sun in my eyes, she was gone.

       A  B           E
But if I were still ten

D                B
in that crowd of thousands

    B            A        
I'd find her again.

E A D (During Spoken Part)



{ Anya / Anastasia } 

      E
A Parade (Dimitri: A parade)

         B
Passing by (Dimitri: Passing by)

         E          B          Abm
It was hot, not a cloud in the sky

       E     B       Abm
Then a boy caught my eye

{ Anya and Dimitri }

A             B
In a crowd of thousands


{ Anya }

        E
He was thin,

         B
Not too clean.

         E          B          Abm
There were guards, but he dodged in between.  

         E     B      Abm
Yes, he made himself seen. 

A                 B
In that crowd of thousands

          A
Then he called out my name

         E
And he started to run

             A
Through the sun and the heat

     Abm
and crowd

                     G
And I tried not to smile

         Cmaj
But I smiled

          A
Then he bowed


{ Anya and Dimitri }


      E
The parade 

         B
Traveled on

          E          B   Abm 
With the sun in my eyes, you were gone

        E    B    Abm
But I knew, even then.

A               B
In a crowd of thousands

     Abm
I'd find you
    E 
Again
