E              A
We carried you in our arms

A  B            E
On Independence Day

E                      A
And now you'd throw us all aside

B                 E
And put us on our way
[Verse 2]
E                     A
Oh what dear daughter 'neath the sun

A     B       A      E
Would treat a father so

A  B             A
To wait upon him hand and foot

B7                 E
And always answer, "No"?
[Chorus]
C#m            E
Tears of rage, tears of grief

Am                E
Why must I always be the thief?

C#m             E
Come to me now, you know

A
We're so alone

A           E
And life is brief
[Verse 3]
E                  E6
We pointed out the way to go

    F#m                    E
And scratched your name in sand

E                              F#m
Though you just thought it was nothing more

A      E
Than a place for you to stand
[Verse 4]
E                            B
Now, I want you to know that while we watched

B   A                  E      F#m
You discover there was no one true

    B            E
And now myself I even thought

E
It was a childish thing to do
[Chorus]
C#m            E
Tears of rage, tears of grief

Am                     E
Why must I always must be the thief?

C#m             E
Come to me now, you know

A
We're so alone

E
And life is brief
[Verse 5]
E               A
It was all very painless

A        E           F#m
When you went out to receive

F#m            C#m
All that false instruction

C#m      B     A     E
Which we never could believe
[Verse 6]
E
And now the heart is filled with gold

F#m
As if it was a purse

E                     C#m
But, oh, what kind of love is this

F#m                    B
Which goes from bad to worse?
[Chorus]
C#m            E
Tears of rage, tears of grief

Am                E
Why must I always be the thief?

C#m             E
Come to me now, you know

A
We're so alone

E
And life is brief
