Forth of July - Pete Droge
tabbed by Steve Vetter [vetters@vax1.elon.edu]
E
Like you I've been hurt seen my face in the dirt
B
But I never reacted like you
The last time we met, you seemd so upset
E
We you left town you did not say bye
A E
Then I heard you'd been seen way down in Eugene
A E
Working as a factory slave
A E
Though the life that you took came from no storybook
B A
You spent it before it was saved
E
On the forth of July
B
See the sparks in the sky
A
When you're sick of the tryin
B
and you're tired of the cryin
E
Then the forth of the July
B
is a good day to die
A
We'll celebrate each year
E
Your independance from here
If you only had just a glimmer of hope
Then I know you'd have done some great things
But you tossed out your gift and it's makin me wish
I'd been there when you found yourself down
But you turned to no one but a bullet and a gun
and the bang blame did end with the day
And I sit here and I drink it still hurts me to think
of the sad songs that we used to play
On the forth of July
See the sparks in the sky
When you're sick of the tryin
and you're tired of the cryin
Then the forth of the July
is a good day to die
We'll celebrate each year
Your independance from here
(For Kurt Cobain?)
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official PETE DROGE tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
