[Verse]
          C
It's the Fourth of July
 
Play that TK Song
          C
Slice an apple pie
 
Buy a cherry bomb
 
    F              Dm7
Go light it off on your front lawn
                C
In the name of freedom
 
     C
The house next door
 
Looks like no one's home
               C
But there's a man inside chilled to the bone
 
 F
Medals on the wall
       Dm7
He got from a warzone
                C
In the name of freedom
 
 
[Chorus]
      F
Everybody's back in town
     G
But he's back in time
   C            G/B
A bottle in his hand
        Am7            G
Bottle rockets in the sky
 
 F
Sounds like a battle
 G
Bombs outside
      C           G/B           Am7          G
He's pouring up another hanging on for dear life
 
         Dm7
If you'd been where he's been
     C/E
You wouldn't ask why
 
      F
He's drinking a fifth
 
N.C.                C
On the Fourth of July

[Verse]
C
He loves his country
 
Hell he fought for it
     C
But he's back to fighting
 
When that fuse gets lit
 
    Dm7
He ain't gonna yell
        C
At the neighborhood kids
             F
Someone who would've died for us
                   G
Shouldn't have to live like this
 
 
[Chorus]
      F
Everybody's back in town
     G
But he's back in time
   C            G/B
A bottle in his hand
        Am             G
Bottle rockets in the sky
 
 F
Sounds like a battle
 G
Bombs outside
      C           G/B           Am7          G
He's pouring up another hanging on for dear life
 
          Dm
If you'd been where he's been
     C/E
You wouldn't ask why
 
      F
He's drinking a fifth
 
G                  C
On the Fourth of July
 
 
[Instrumental]
C   F   Am   G
 
 
[Break]
 C
Foxhole memories
     F
And folded flag friends
       Am
Those flashing lights
 
On summer nights
     G
Are flashbacks for him
 
      C
Yeah whiskey numbs the pain
     F
But don't make him forget it
     Am
But just cause it hurts
       G
Don't mean he regrets it
 
 
[Chorus]
      F
Everybody's back in town
     G
But he's back in time
   C            G/B
A bottle in his hand
        Am7            G
Bottle rockets in the sky
 
 F
Sounds like a battle
 G
Bombs outside
      C           G/B           Am           G
He's pouring up another hanging on for dear life
 
         Dm
If you'd been where he's been
     C/E
You wouldn't ask why
 
      F
He's drinking a fifth
 
G                  C
On the Fourth of July
