Al[G]one with the morning burning [D]red in the canvas in my [C]head
Painting a picture of yo[Am]u [D]
And m[G]e driving across count[D]ry, in a dusty old R[C]V
Just the road and its majes[Am]ty [D]
And I'm [C]looking at you with the [D]world in the rear view
Y[G]ou were pretty as can be, sitting in the front seat
L[D]ooking at me, telling me you love me, and your [G]happy to be,
With me on the 4th of July[C9]
We sang [G]Stranglehold to the stereo
Couldn't ta[D]ke no more of that rock n roll
So we p[G]ut on a little George Jones and just sang alon[C9]g
[G] , [C9] , [G] , [C9] (Intro 2 style strum)
Those white [G]lines get drawn into the [D]sun if you aint got no one [C]
To keep you hanging [Am]on [D]
And there you w[G]ere like a queen with your night[D]gown,
Riding shotgun from t[C]own to town
Staking a claim on the wor[Am]ld we foun[D]d
And I'm [C]singing to you, your singing to me ,y[D]ou were out of the blue to a
boy like me
Y[G]ou were pretty as can be, sitting in the front seat
L[D]ooking at me, telling me you love me, and your [G]happy to be,
With me on the 4th of July[C9]
We sang [G]Stranglehold to the stereo
Couldn't ta[D]ke no more of that rock n roll
So we p[G]ut on a little George Jones and just sang alon[C9]g
and im l[C]ooking for you in the s[D]ilence that we share
(No chord) G
You were pretty as can be, sitting in the front seat
L[D]ooking at me, telling me you love me, and your [G]happy to be,
With me on the 4th of July[C9]
We sang [G]Stranglehold to the stereo
Couldn't ta[D]ke no more of that rock n roll
So we p[G]ut on a little George Jones and just sang alon[C9]g
[D]Sang along....
