Chord Gitar Independence Day – Martina McBride

Capo di fret 2

(Intro)    

         
Well she seemed all right
   
by dawn's early light
           
Though she looked
                     
a little worried and weak
    
She tried to pretend
                   
he wasn't drinking again
                                    -
But Daddy left the proof on her cheek


I was only
            
eight years old that summer
      
And I always
                    
seemed to be in the way
     
So I took myself down
              
to the fair in town
                      
On Independence Day

      
Well, word gets around
      
in a small, small town
                            
They said he was a dangerous man
    
But Mama was proud
                 
and she stood her ground
                                 -
She knew she was on the losing end


Some folks whispered,

some folks talked
                              
But everybody looked the other way
         
And when time ran out,
                 
there was no one about
               
On Independence Day..

(Chorus)
            
Let freedom ring..
                
let the white dove sing..
        
Let the whole world know
                        
that today.. is a day of reckoning
                
Let the weak be strong..
                 
let the right be wrong
                 
Roll that stone away,
               
let the guilty pay
                         
It's Independence Day

          
Well, she lit up the sky
     
that Fourth of July
                            
By the time that the firemen come
          
They just put out the flames
                       
and they took down some names
                             -
And sent me to the county home

    
Now I ain't saying
     
it's right or it's wrong
                       
But maybe it's the only way
                 
Talk about your revolution
                 
It's Independence Day

(Chorus)
            
Let freedom ring..
                
let the white dove sing..
        
Let the whole world know
                        
that today.. is a day of reckoning
                
Let the weak be strong..
                 
let the right be wrong
                 
Roll that stone away,
               
let the guilty pay
                  
It's Independence Day
                 
 roll that stone away
                       
 It's Independence Day
