Gretchen Peters - Independence Day


CAPO: 2nd Fret




INTRO: F  Bb  F  Bb  F  Bb  F

                             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


CHORUS:
N.C.        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
N.C.              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


CHORUS:
N.C.        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
N.C.              F    Bb
It's Independence Day
                 F    Bb
Roll that stone away
                  F   Bb   F
