Today's the 4th of July

Another June has gone by
F#m7 Bm C G
And when they light up our town I just think
Em F#m7 G
What a waste of gunpowder and sky
Em F#m G
F#m7 Bm G
I'm certain I am alone

In harbouring thoughts of our home
F#m7 Bm C G
It's one of my faults that I can't quell my past
Em F#m7 G
I ought to have gotten it gone
Em F#m7 G
I ought to have gotten it

(one beat each)
A G D Em D/F# Bm Em A G
Ooh baby I wonder if when you are older some day

you'll wake up and say "My God I should have told her what would it take?

But now here I am and the world's gotten colder
G F#m7 G F#m7 G
And she's got the river down which I sold her
F#m7 Bm G
So that's today's memory lane

With all the pathos and pain
F#m7 Bm C G
Another chapter in a book where the chapters are endless
Em F#m7 G
And they're always the same

A verse and a verse and refrain
