Verse
[C]I [G]still remember that night it was the 4th of july
[A]St[E]ill engraved in my mind and im not surprised
[F]Ga[C]ng wars no guns hand to hand
[D]yo[G]u're black im white hes purple but i still dont understand
[C]im[G] gonna be alright im gonna be ok
[A]ev[E]erythings gonna be fine
[F]ba[C]ck off cause i wanna be alone
[D]i [G]wanna think it out and im thinking that i wanna go home
[C]wh[G]o's laughin now
[F]pu[G]ll it off somehow
[C]as[G] i[A] p[G]as[F]sed her by, i could see her cry
[F]an[G]d [C]il[F]l [G]never forget the look that was in her eye
[C]an[G]d [A]th[G]e [F]music you know it played on and on and on

then the verse again
then a little finger picking
then, with distortion
C F C G is the main progression there
