4th Of July chords by Aimee Mann (Ver. 2)

• Capo on 2nd

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Difficulty: Advanced

This song uses some pretty unique chord voicings and I tried to capture those here.
She also uses several walk downs and walk ups throughout the song that I haven't seen in other versions.
[Note on chorus - Between the E chord and the C#m7, walk up the low E string on each beat,
stopping at F# and G#. E.g. on the first chorus, the F# would fall on "My" and the g# would fall on "God"]

Generally, she plays the root(lowest string) on the downbeat and then strums for the 2 and the 3.

Verse:
G#m7            C#m7      Asus2
    Today's the fourth of July
G#m7        C#m7          Asus2
    Another June has gone by
G#m7              C#m7         D
    And when they light up our town
Dsus2  Dm7sus2  A            F#m7        G#m7       A    Asus2
I      just     think what a waste of gunpowder and sky

Verse:
G#m7            C#m7  Asus2
    I'm certain I am alone
G#m7              C#m7            Asus2
    In harbouring thoughts of our home
G#m7               C#m7          D     Dsus2  Dm7sus2   A
    It's one of my faults that I can't quell  my        past
  F#m7          G#m7   A    Asus2
I ought to have gotten it gone

Chorus:
Badd4   A
Oh,     baby
  E              C#m7     F#
I wonder if when you are older
Badd4  A   Asus2
Some   day
Badd4  A           E
You'll wake up and say
         C#m7          F#
"My God, I should have told her
Badd4         A     Asus2
What would it take?
Badd4  A          E          C#m7           F#      A  Asus2
But    now here I am and the world's gotten colder
    F#m7                G#m7              Asus2
And she's got the river down which I sold her"

Verse:
G#m7         C#m7           Asus2
   So that's today's memory lane
G#m7            C#m7       Asus2
   With all the pathos and pain
G#m7       C#m7         D    Dsus2 Dm7sus2 A            F#m7
   Another chapter in a book where the     chapters are endless
            G#m7       A    Asus2
And they're always the same
  F#m7          G#m7       Asus2
A verse, then a verse, and refrain

Chorus:
Badd4   A
Oh,     baby
  E              C#m7     F#
I wonder if when you are older
Badd4  A   Asus2
Some   day
Badd4  A           E
You'll wake up and say
         C#m7          F#
"My God, I should have told her
Badd4         A     Asus2
What would it take?
Badd4  A          E          C#m7           F#      A  Asus2
But    now here I am and the world's gotten colder
    F#m7                G#m7              Asus2
And she's got the river down which I sold her"
