Biografía:
Dave Alvin (born November 11, 1955, in Downey, California), is an American guitarist, singer and songwriter. He has been one of the leading proponents of 'roots' or 'American' music, bringing together elements of rock-and-roll, blues, rural and tejano music.
Alvin and his older brother Phil Alvin grew up loving Americana, country and blues. In 1979 they formed The Blasters with friends Bill Bateman and John Bazz.
Shortly after leaving the Blasters, Alvin joined X as lead guitarist after the departure of Billy Zoom.

She's waiting for me when I get home from work
C G Gsus4
But things just ain't the same

Won't answer when I call her name
(chorus)

On the stairs I smoke a cigarette alone

The Mexican kids are shooting fireworks below
G Em
Hey, baby, it's the Fourth of July
G Em
Hey, baby, it's the Fourth of July

She gives me her cheek when I want her lips
And I don't have the strength to go
On the lost side of town in a dark apartment
We gave up trying so long ago
(repeat chorus)

Whatever happened, I apologize

So dry your tears and baby, walk outside

It's the Fourth of July
