G                  C            G 
Sky's lightning up everybody's so high 
G                              D 
Come take my hand It's the forth of July 
G                  C            G 
God bless America and all of that shit 
G                              D            G 
Well I should probably feel better, but I feel I should quit 
 
 
C                        G 
So raise a flag for the boys who paid their dues 
G                        D 
So I could be free here to live with these blues 
C                        G      C 
No it doesn't seem right everybody's so high 
C                 G            D          G 
And I'm crying the blues on the fourth of July  
 

G                        C      G 
Take a walk downtown it's a beautiful day 
G                        D 
Smoke a cigarette and watch the parade 
G                         C            G 
We'll sing God Bless America and all of that stuff 
G                        D            G 
I should probably feel better if I've had enough 
 
(chorus) 
 

C                        G      C 
No it doesn't seem right everybody's so high 
C                G            D         G 
And I'm crying the blues on the fourth of July
