[Verse 1]
 
         A                   D
Well she seemed all right by dawn's early light
           A                           D
Though she looked a little worried and weak
    A                          D        A
She tried to pretend he wasn't drinking again
    E                                   D
But Daddy'd left the proof on her cheek
A                      D
I was only eight years old that summer
      A                          D
And I always seemed to be in the way
     F#m                      D       A
So I took myself down to the fair in town
E               A   D   A   D
On Independence Day
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
      A                     D
Well, word gets around in a small, small town
     A                       D
They said he was a dangerous man
    A                      D         A
But Mama was proud and she stood her ground
    E                               D
She knew she was on the losing end
A                     D
Some folks whispered, some folks talked
         A                     D
But everybody looked the other way
         F#m                     D      A
And when time ran out, there was no one about
E               A
On Independence Day
 
 
[Chorus]
 
N.C.        E                        F#m
Let freedom ring, let the white dove sing
        D                       A               E
Let the whole world know that today is a day of reckoning
                F#m7                     D
Let the weak be strong, let the right be wrong
                A                    E
Roll that stone away, let the guilty pay
                  Asus2 A  Asus2 A  Dsus2
It's Independence Day
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
          A                   D
Well, she lit up the sky that Fourth of July
       A                     D
By the time that the firemen come
         A                            D              A
They just put out the flames and they took down some names
    E                          D
And sent me to the county home
    A                   D
Now I ain't saying it's right or it's wrong
    A                   D
But maybe it's the only way
F#m                 D     A
Talk about your revolution
E                 A
It's Independence Day
 
 
[Chorus]
 
            E                        F#m
Let freedom ring, let the white dove sing
        D                       A               E
Let the whole world know that today is a day of reckoning
                F#m7                     D
Let the weak be strong, let the right be wrong
                 A                   E
Roll that stone away, let the guilty pay
                  Asus2 A  Asus2 A  Dsus2
