INTRO: G D G D G D A G

Papa go to bed now it's getting late

G D

Nothing we can say is gonna change anything now

G D

I'll be leaving in the morning from St. Mary's Gate

G D

We wouldn't change this thing even if we could somehow

A G

`Cause the darkness of this house has got the best of us

G D

There's a darkness in this town that's got us too

G D

But they can't touch me now and you can't touch me now

G D

They ain't gonna do to me what I watched them do to you

A G

So say goodbye it's Independence Day

D

It's Independence Day all down the line

A G

Just say goodbye it's Independence Day

D

It's Independence Day this time

A G

Now I don't know what it always was with us

We chose the words and yeah we drew the lines

There was just no way this house could hold the two of us

I guess that we were just too much of the same kind

Well say goodbye it's Independence Day

All boys must run away come Independence Day

So say goodbye it's Independence Day

All men must make their way come Independence Day

Now the rooms are all empty down at Frankie's joint

And the highway she's deserted down to Breaker's Point

There's a lot of people leaving town now

Leaving their friends their homes

At night they walk that dark and dusty highway all alone

Well Papa go to bed now it's getting late

Nothing we can say can change anything now

Because there's just different people coming down here now

And they see things in different ways

And soon everything we've known will just be swept away

So say goodbye it's Independence Day

Papa now I know the things you wanted that you could not say

But won't you just say goodbye it's Independence Day

I swear I never meant to take those things away
