Chords for "Independence Day" Martina McBride (Cover by Casi Joy)

_ I swear I just heard an alien in my headphones. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Well _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [C] she _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] seemed alright [C] by the dawn's early light
But [G] she looked a little [C] worried indeed
She [G] tried to pretend [C] he wasn't drinking [G] again
[D] But daddy left the proof on her cheek
_ [C] I [A] was only eight [C] years old that summer
And [D] I always [G] seemed to be in the way
_ [E] So I took my son down [C] to the [G] fair and town
[D] On Independence [G] _ _ Day
[C] _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
[G] Well word gets around [C] in a small, small [G] town
They said he was a [C] dangerous man _
[G] But mama was proud [C] and she stood [G] her ground
[D] She knew she was on the losing _ end
[C] _ [G] Some folks whisper, [C] some folks talk
[G] But everybody looked the [C] other way
[Em] And when time ran out [C] there was no [G] one allowed
[D] On Independence [G] _ Day
_ _ [E] Let freedom [D] _ _
ring
_ Let the white [Em] dove sing
_ _ _ Let the [C] whole world know [G] that today
Is a [D] day of reckoning
_ Let the weak [Em] be thrown _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] away
Let the guilty [D] pay
It's Independence _ [G] _ _
[C] Day
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ [G] Well she lit up that sky [C] like the 4th of July
[G] The time that the [C] firemen come
They [G] just put out the flames [C] and they took [G] down the names
[D] Of each other's counting homes
_ [C] [G] Now I ain't saying [C] it's right or it's wrong
[G] But maybe it's the [C] only way
_ [Em] To talk about your [C] revolution
[G] _ _ [D] It's Independence [G] _ Day
_ _ Let [Em] freedom [D] _ _ ring
Let the white [Em] dove sing _ _ _
Let [C] the whole world know [G] that today
Is a [D] day of reckoning
_ Let the weak [Em] be thrown _ _ away
Let the guilty [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [D] pay
It's Independence [G] _ _ Day
[C] _ Right, _ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ it's Independence [G] _ _ Day
[C] _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [N] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
