[A]            [G]         [A]
Firecracker, you waved in the night,
    [G]           [D]        [E]
Something that I saw was a flaming,
    [A]            [G]         [A]
Your body, it was real in the light,
[G]                [D]           [E]
On the fourth of july, we were screaming

[F#m]                      [D]
Well I saw the lonley road,
                                 [A]
You left and said to me, don't follow,
                 [E]
Cause I'll only bring you sorrow.
[F#m]                           [D]
And head on down my lonley road,
You left and I just said

[riff one]

No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no

    [A]            [G]         [A]
Well I'm back in, my old town again
            [G]           [D]          [E]
Is there something still alive that I left here?
    [A]            [G]         [A]
Do you still like, the boys on the street?
  [G]            [D]                    [E]
I will take you uptown, just to see you meet them.

Chorus

[No chord here, I just thump my guitar with my palm]

I said I've, been reading the bible for a change,
Maybe there's something I have miswsed there,
Well I seen, well I seen some eyes in the rain,
they creep out my mind,
And I saw you whisper,

    [A]            [G]         [A]
Firecracker, you waved in the night,
   [G]           [D]         [E]
Something that I saw was a flaming,
    [A]               [G]           [A]
Do you feel like, we left something here,
[G]                [D]           [E]
Something worth coming back and cleaning?


[F#m]                      [D]
Well I saw the lonley road,
                                 [A]
You left and said to me, don't follow,
                 [E]
Cause I'll only bring you sorrow.
[F#m]                           [D]
And head on down my lonley road,
                                          [A]
You left and said, you said to me, Don't follow,
                       [E]
cause we'll sleep and drink for tomorrow,
[F#m]                    [D]
And in the dead of night,
                                 [A]
You left and said to me, don't follow,
                 [E]
Cause I'll only bring you sorrow.
[F#m]                      [D]
And head on down my lonley road,
You left and I just said
[riff one]
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
