[Intro 1]
[G][D][G][D]
[G][D][A][G]

[Verse 1]
Well [G]Papa go to bed now it's [D]getting late
Nothing we can [G]say is gonna change
anything [D]now
I'll be [G]leaving in the morning from
Saint [D]Mary's Gate
We wouldn't [A]change this thing even if we
could some[G]how
'Cause the darkness of this house has got the
[D]best of us
There's a [G]darkness in this town that's
got us [D]too
But they can't [G]touch me now
And you can't [D]touch me now
They ain't gonna [A]do to me
What I watched them do to [G]you

[Chorus 1]
So [G]say goodbye it's Inde[D]pendence Day
It's Inde[A]pendence Day
All down the [G]line
Just say goodbye it's Inde[D]pendence Day
It's Inde[A]pendence Day this [G]time

[Verse 2]
[G]Now I don't know what it always was[D] with us
We chose the [G]words, and yeah,
we drew the [D]lines
There was just [G]no way this house could hold
the [D]two of us
I guess that [A]we were just
too much of the same [G]kind

[Chorus 2]
Well [G]say goodbye it's Inde[D]pendence Day
It's Inde[A]pendence Day
all boys must [G]run away
So say goodbye it's Inde[D]pendence Day
All men must [A]make their way come
Inde[G]pendence Day

[Solo 1]

[G][D][A][G]

[Verse 3]
Now the [G]rooms are all empty
down at [D]Frankie's joint
And the high[G]way she's deserted down to
[D]Breaker's Point
There's a lot of people [G]leaving town now
Leaving their [D]friends, their homes
At night they [A]walk that dark and dusty
highway [G]all alone
Well Papa go to bed now it's [D]getting late
Nothing we can [G]say is gonna change
anything [D]now
Because there's just different
[G]people coming down here now
And they see things in different [D]ways
And soon eve[A]rything we've known will
just be [G]swept away

[Chorus 3]
So [G]say goodbye it's Inde[D]pendence Day
Papa now I [A]know the things you wanted
that you [G]could not say
But won't you just say goodbye it's
Inde[D]pendence Day
I swear I [A]never meant to take those things
a[G]way
