Capo 1st fret
G7
Oh, there's going to be fireworks (fireworks!)
On the Fourth of July (red, white, and blue!)
C7
Red, white, and blue fireworks
D7
Like diamonds in the sky. (diamonds in the sky!)
C7
We're going to shoot the entire works on fireworks
That really show, oh yeah
G7
We declared our liberty 200 years ago
Yeah!
G7
In 1776 (fireworks!)
C7
There were fireworks too (red, white, and blue!)
The original colonists
D7
You know their tempers blew (They really blew!)
Like Thomas Paine once wrote:
C7
It's only common sense (only common sense)
G7
That if a government won't give you your basic rights
C7
You'd better get another government
B7 C
And though some people tried to fight it
B7 C
Well, a committee was formed to write it:
A7
Benjamin Franklin, Philip Livingston
D7
John Adams, Roger Sherman, Thomas Jefferson
They got it done (Oh yes they did!)
G7
The Declaration, uh-huh-huh
The Declaration of Independence (oh yeah!)
In seventeen hundred seventy six (right on!)
C7
The Continental Congress said that we were free (we're free!)
D7 C#7 C7
Said we had the right of life and liberty
B7 D7
. . . And the pursuit of happiness!
G7
Oh, when England heard the news (kerpow!)
They blew their stack (they really blew their cool!)
C7
But the colonists lit the fuse
There'd be no turning back (no turning back!)
D7
They'd had enough of injustice now
C7
But even if it really hurts, oh yeah
G7
If you don't give us our freedom now
C7
You're going to see some fireworks!
B7 C
And on the Fourth of July they signed it
B7 C
And 56 names underlined it
A7
And now to honor those first 13 states
D7
We turn the sky into a birthday cake
They got it done (oh yes, they did!)
G7
The Declaration, uh-huh-huh
The Declaration of Independence (oh yeah!)

D7 G7

B7 D7
. . . And the pursuit of happiness!
G G7
We hold these truths to be self-evident
C
That all men are created equal
G
And that they are endowed by their creator
D7
With certain inalienable rights
C G
That among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
D C
And if there's one thing that makes me happy
Then you know that it's (oh)
G7
There's going to be fireworks!
