[Intro] C#m C#m B F# C#m B F# [Verse 1]
C#
We are names, and we are faces

C#
Not listed in the pages

       E                 F#
You're searching line by line

    C#
The voices in the wire

    C#
The glass under your tires

    E             B
The panic in your eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
                              F#
And when we start to lose control

C#m                           F#
And when we start to lose our minds

       A               B
That's when I close my eyes
[Chorus]
           C#m    E
And feel a sudden urge(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)

              B          F#
To watch this whole town burn

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)

             C#m        E
Light up the whole damn sky (Whoa-oh-oh-oh)

         B
Like the Fourth of July

         F#              C#m
Like the Fourth of July, hey!
[Verse 2]
        C#m
I am as patient as a volcano

        C#m
A butterfly in a landmine field

       C#m
I am a dandelion making guns go silent

         C#m          E               F#
Sticking out of every barrel, cold as steel
[Pre-Chorus 2]
            F#
And in this fight you've started

      C#m
I'm a moving target

        F#
And I'm sick of running

        C#m  B     F#     E
But the pain keeps coming
[Chorus]
       C#m    E
Like a sudden urge(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)

              B          F#
To watch this whole town burn

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)

             C#m        E
Light up the whole damn sky (Whoa-oh-oh-oh)

         B
Like the Fourth of July

         F#
Like the Fourth of July, hey!
[Interlude] C# E F# 3x C# [Bridge]
A             B               F#
Searching for something worth saving from this fire

A        B          F#
Try to envision the glass half-full

A         B         F#
Give me a reason to smother these flames, now

  A         B         C#
Before they begin to grow
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m
I can't stop the sky from falling

C#m
All I hear are voices calling

C#m
Asking, "Have you come to heal us?"

C#m
Touch my shaking hand
[Chorus]
              C#m    E
You'll feel a sudden urge(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)

              B          F#
To watch this whole town burn

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)

             C#m        E
Light up the whole damn sky (Whoa-oh-oh-oh)

         B
Like the Fourth of July

    F#
The Fourth of July
[Outro]
     C#m                    E
From branch to root, we are black inside

B                                 F#
Scorching the earth like it's the Fourth of July

        C#m                  E
If everything you knew was a goddamn lie

          B               F#
Would you up and explode

                          C#m  C#
Like it's the Fourth of July?
