[Intro]
C D C
 
[Verse]
    Am      D             G      D
The evil it spread like a fever ahead
        C             D             C
It was night when you died, my firefly
Am                D       G                  D
What could I have said to raise you from the dead?
         C         D                    C
Oh could I be the sky on the Fourth of July?
         D         G
Well you do enough talk
D         G     D           C
My little hawk, why do you cry?
        D            G
Tell me what did you learn from the
D         G             D          C
Tillamook burn?  Or the Fourth of July?
      D         Am
We're all gonna die.
 
[Interlude]
Am D G D C Am
 
[Verse]
Am             D            G            D
Sitting at the bed with the halo at your head
       C         D                 C
Was it all a disguise, like Junior High?
      Am             D        G              D
Where everything was fiction, future, and prediction
C            D                C
Now where am I?  My fading supply
        D          G     D         G
Did you get enough love, my little dove
D          C
Why do you cry?
        D       G            D           G
And I'm sorry I left, but it was for the best
          D          C
Though it never felt right
   D           Am
My little Versailles
 
[Interlude]
Am D G D C Am
 
[Verse]
    Am       D                G       D
The hospital asked should the body be cast
      C         D                   C
Before I say goodbye, my star in the sky
Am           D          G              D
Such a funny thought to wrap you up in cloth
       C          D                 C
Do you find it all right, my dragonfly?
         D           G     D         G
Shall we look at the moon, my little loon?
D           C
Why do you cry?
         D            G     D           G
Make the most of your life, while it is rife
D           C
While it is light
         D         G
Well you do enough talk
D         G     D          C
My little hawk, why do you cry?
        D            G              D         G
Tell me what did you learn from the Tillamook burn?
       D          C
Or the Fourth of July?
      D         Am
We're all gonna die
 
[Outro]
Am D G D C Am
                We're all gonna die
Am D G D C Am                     C
                We're all gonna die
C D C
                We're all gonna die (x5)
