Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

They're comin' down the street

They're comin' right down the middle

Look how they keep the beat

Why they're as blue as the ocean

How the sun shines down

How their feet hardly touch the ground

Jolly Coppers On Parade

Here come the black-and-whites

Here come the motorcycles

Listen to those engines roar

Now they're doin' tricks for the children

Oh, they look so nice

Looks like angels have come down from Paradise

Jolly Coppers On Parade

Oh, mama

That's the life for me

When I'm grown

That's what I want to be

They're comin' down the street

They're comin' right down the middle

Look how they keep the beat

Coming through the heart of the city

Oh, it's all so nice

Looks like angels have come down from Paradise

Jolly Coppers On Parade

Jolly Coppers On Parade

Repeat main progression to fade.

Chords:

There is an electric guitar in the end playing a simple G (xxx033).

Most of the chords during the main progression will sound better

if you stick to the middle four strings, or add a high or low G.

That's how I play my favourite Randy Newman song. Enjoy
