 INDEPENDENCE DAY (Gretchen Peters)<br/>
 ----------------------------------<br/>
 [Actually in A; capo 2.]<br/>
 <br/>
 G   G   C   C     G   G   C   C<br/>
 [intro]<br/>
 <br/>
            G         G        C            C<br/>
 Well she seemed all right by dawn's early light<br/>
            G               G            C     C<br/>
 Though she looked a little worried and weak<br/>
     G            G             C          G<br/>
 She tried to pretend he wasn't drinking again<br/>
     D                D              D      D - C<br/>
 But Daddy'd left the proof on her cheek<br/>
 <br/>
 G          G            C        C<br/>
 I was only eight years old that summer<br/>
        G               G          C   C<br/>
 And I always seemed to be in the way<br/>
      Em           Em          C       G<br/>
 So I took myself down to the fair in town<br/>
  D     D         G   G   C   C     G   G   C   C<br/>
 On Independence Day<br/>
 <br/>
 Well, word gets around in a small, small town<br/>
 They said he was a dangerous man<br/>
 But Mama was proud and she stood her ground<br/>
 She knew she was on the losing end<br/>
 <br/>
 Some folks whispered, some folks talked<br/>
 But everybody looked the other way<br/>
 And when time ran out, there was no one about<br/>
  D     D         G   G   G [stop]<br/>
 On Independence Day<br/>
 <br/>
              D   D   D        D         Em    Em   Em   Em<br/>
 Let freedom ring,     let the white dove sing<br/>
           C           C          G       G     D      D   D   D<br/>
 Let the whole world know that today is a day of reckoning<br/>
                 Em7    Em7   Em7        Em7       C   C<br/>
 Let the weak be strong,        let the right be wrong<br/>
 C           C       G           G       D [stop]<br/>
   Roll that stone away, let the guilty pay<br/>
                    G   G   C   C     G   G   C   C<br/>
 It's Independence Day<br/>
 <br/>
 Well, she lit up the sky that Fourth of July<br/>
 By the time that the firemen come<br/>
 They just put out the flames and they took down some names<br/>
 And sent me to the county home<br/>
 <br/>
 Now I ain't saying it's right or it's wrong<br/>
 But maybe it's the only way<br/>
 Talk about your revolution<br/>
 It's Independence Day<br/>
 <br/>
 Let freedom ring, let the white dove sing<br/>
 Let the whole world know that today is a day of reckoning<br/>
 Let the weak be strong, let the right be wrong<br/>
 Roll that stone away, let the guilty pay<br/>
                    G   G   C           C       G   G<br/>
 It's Independence Day,       roll that stone away<br/>
 C          C         G   G   C   C    G.<br/>
   It's Independence Day<br/>
