Verse One:
    F                                         G
   She's waitin' for me                  when I get home from work

   F                           F
  Oh but things just ain't the same
   F                                         G
   She turns off the light               and cries in the dark
  F                                    G
  and she won't answer when I call her name




Chorus:
    F                       G
    On the stairs I smoke a cigarette alone
    F                         G
    Mexican kids are shooting fireworks below
         F                    Am
    And  hey baby    it's the 4th of July
    F                     Am
    Hey Baby     it's the 4th of July


Verse two:

     She gives me her cheek               when I want her lips
     F                                   F
     Oh but I don't have the strength to go
     F                                          G
     On the Far side of town               in a dark apartment
     F                        G
     We gave up trying so long ago
