Fireworks Acordes

	  
 

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!) 
                                  C7  
In seventeen hundred seventy six (right on!) 
                                   G7 
The Continental Congress said that we were free (we're free!) 
                D7                G7  
Said we had the right of life and liberty 
      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!
