Chorus: C It was the fourth of July D Em G You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks Am That went off too soon Em And I miss you in the June gloom too C It was the fourth of July D Em G You and I were, you and I were fire, fire, fireworks Am I said I’d never miss you, but I guess you never know Em May the bridges I have burned light my way C back home on the fourth of July C D I’ll be as honest as you’ll let me Em G I miss your early morning company, if you get me Am You are my favorite "what if" Em You are my best "I’ll never know", and C D I’m staring to forget Em G Am Just what summer ever meant to you Em What did it ever mean to you? C D I’m sorry I didn’t mean any of it Em G I just got too lonely, lonely, oh-oh Am In between being young and being right Em You were my Versailles at night Chorus My 9 to 5 is cutting open old scars Again and again till I'm stuck in your head Had my doubts but I let them out You are the drought And I'm the holy water you have been without And all my thoughts of you They could heat or cool the room And no, don't tell me you cried Oh, honey, you don't have to lie Oh, I'm sorry I didn't mean any of it I just got too lonely, lonely, whoa In between being young and being right You were my Versailles at night Chorus C D Em G I wish I’d known how much you loved me Am Em I wish I cared enough to know C D Em I’m sorry every song’s about you G Am Em The torture of small talk with someone you used to love Chorus | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm C D Em G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
