                                                                             Bb  
Well she seemed all right by dawn's early light
                             F                                                                      Bb  
Though she looked a little worried and weak
          F                                                                    Bb                      F  
She tried to pretend he wasn't drinking again
          C  
But Daddy'd left the proof on her cheek
F                                                         Bb  
I was only eight years old that summer
                F                                                                    Bb  
And I always seemed to be in the way
             Dm                                                         Bb                 F            C  
So I took myself down to the fair in town
                                          F         Bb    F    Bb  
On Independence Day
                F                                                      Bb  
Well, word gets around in a small, small town
             F                                                            Bb  
They said he was a dangerous man
          F                                                         Bb                      F  
But Mama was proud and she stood her ground
          C  
She knew she was on the losing end
F                                                      Bb  
Some folks whispered, some just talked
                        F                                                      Bb  
But everybody looked the other way
          Dm                                                                      Bb              F              C  
And when time ran out, there was no one about
                                          F            Bb  F  
On Independence Day
                        C                                                            Dm  
Let freedom ring, let the white dove sing
                     Bb                                                            F                                      C  
Let the whole world know that today is a day of reckoning
                                          Dm                                                              Bb  
Let the weak be strong, let the right be wrong
                                             F                                                 C  
Roll that stone away, let the guilty pay
                                        F         Bb    F      Bb  
It's Independence Day
                          F                                                 Bb  
Well, she lit up the sky that Fourth of July
                  F                                                      Bb  
By the time that the firemen come
                        F                                                                         Bb                                    F  
They just put out the flames and they took down some names
          C  
And sent me to the county home
          F                                                 Bb  
Now I ain't saying it's right or it's wrong
          F                                                 Bb  
But maybe it's the only way
                Dm                                              Bb              F  
Let's talk about your revolution
C                                            F  
It's Independence Day
                        C                                                            Dm  
Let freedom ring, let the white dove sing
                     Bb                                                            F                                      C  
Let the whole world know that today is a day of reckoning
                                          Dm                                                              Bb  
Let the weak be strong, let the right be wrong
                                             F                                                 C  
Roll that stone away, let the guilty pay
                                        F         Bb  
It's Independence Day
                                             F         Bb  
Roll that stone away
