Verse
A
So we waved our hands as we marched along
D
And the people smiled as we sang our song

And the world was saved as they listened to the band
And the banner man held the banner high

He was ten feet tall and he touched the sky
Em A D
And I wish that I could be a banner man
Verse 2
A
And the drums went boom as the cornets play
D
And the tuba oomphard all the way

And the kids and the dogs were laughing as they ran
And the banner man held the banner high

With an Alleluiah in his eye
Em A D D
And I wish that I could be a banner man

Verse 3

So we reached the square on the top of the hill
D
And the music stopped and we stood still

And the drums went bang as the trumpets blew
Em A D
And we marched back down into the town again
