Well, papa go to bed now it's getting late,
G+G D MajorD
nothing we can say is gonna change anything now
G+G D MajorD
I'll be leaving in the morning from St. Mary's Gate,
A augmentedA G+G
we wouldn't change this thing even if we could somehow
G+G D MajorD
Cause the darkness of this house has got the best of us,
G+G D MajorD
there's a darkness in this town that's got us too,
G+G D MajorD
But they can't touch me now and you can't touch me now,
A augmentedA G+G
they ain't gonna do to me what I watched them do to you
G+G D MajorD
So say goodbye, it's Independence Day,
A augmentedA G+G
it's Independence Day all down the line
D MajorD
Just say goodbye, it's Independence Day,
A augmentedA G+G
it's Independence Day this time
G+G D MajorD
Now, I don't know what it always was with us,
G+G D MajorD
we chose the words, and yeah, we drew the lines
G+G D MajorD
There was just no way this house could hold the two of us, anymore,
A augmentedA G+G
I guess that we were just too much of the same kind
G+G D MajorD
Well, say goodbye, it's Independence Day,
A augmentedA G+G
all boys must run away, from Independence Day
D MajorD
So say goodbye it's Independence Day,
C majorC G+G
all men must make their way, come Independence Day
D MajorD G+G D MajorD 3x
A augmentedA G+G
G+G D MajorD
Now the rooms are all empty down at Frankie's joint,
G+G D MajorD
and the highway she's deserted clear down to Breaker's Point
G+G D MajorD
There's a lot of people leaving town now, leaving their friends, their homes;
A augmentedA G+G
at night they walk that dark and dusty highway all alone
G+G D MajorD
Well, papa go to bed now it's getting late,
G+G D MajorD
nothing we can say is gonna change anything now
G+G
Because there's just different people coming down here now,
D MajorD
and they see things in different ways;
A augmentedA G+G
and soon everything we've known will just be swept away
G+G D MajorD
So say goodbye it's Independence Day,
A augmentedA G+G
papa now I know the things you wanted that you could not say
D MajorD
But won't you just say goodbye, it's Independence Day,
A augmentedA G+G
I swear I never meant to take those things away
D MajorD G+G D MajorD 3x
A augmentedA G+G
