Intro Em F#m7 G 2x
Today's the 4th of July
Another June has gone by
And when they light up our town I just think
What a waste of gunpowder and sky
   
I'm certain I am alone
In harbouring thoughts of our home
It's one of my faults that I can't quell my past
I ought to have gotten it gone
I ought to have gotten it 
(one beat each)
Ooh baby I wonder if when you are older some day
you'll wake up and say "My God I should have told her what would it take?
But now here I am and the world's gotten colder
And she's got the river down which I sold her  
So that's today's memory lane
With all the pathos and pain
Another chapter in a book where the chapters are endless
And they're always the same
A verse and a verse and refrain

chorus

And she's got the river down which I sold her
