Intro: G  Em

G                      D         Dsus4     C
She's waiting for me when I get home from work
C                G     Gsus4
But things just ain't the same
G                  D            Dsus4     C
She turns out the light and cries in the dark
C                   D
Won't answer when I call her name
(chorus)
C              D              G     E D C
On the stairs I smoke a   cigarette alone
C                    D               Dsus4
The Mexican kids are shooting fireworks below
G             Em
Hey, baby, it's the Fourth of July
G             Em
Hey, baby, it's the Fourth of July
(same as first verse)
She gives me her cheek when I want her lips
And I don't have the strength to Go
On the lost side of town in a dark apartment
We gave up trying so long ago
(repeat chorus)
C           D            E D C
Whatever happened, I   apologize
C                  D
So dry your tears and baby, walk outside
D          G
It's the Fourth of July

(repeat chorus)
