Firecracker Tab

    []            []         []
Firecracker, you waved in the night,
    []           []        []
Something that I saw was a flaming,
    []            []         []
Your body, it was real in the light,
[]                []           []
On the fourth of july, we were screaming

[]                      []
Well I saw the lonley road,
                                 []
You left and said to me, don't follow,
                 []
Cause I'll only bring you sorrow.
[]                           []
And head on down my lonley road,
You left and I just said

[riff one]

No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no

    []            []         []
Well I'm back in, my old town again
            []           []          []
Is there something still alive that I left here?
    []            []         []
Do you still like, the boys on the street?
  []            []                    []
I will take you uptown, just to see you meet them.

Chorus

[No chord here, I just thump my guitar with my palm]

I said I've, been reading the bible for a change,
Maybe there's something I have miswsed there,
Well I seen, well I seen some eyes in the rain,
they creep out my mind,
And I saw you whisper,

    []            []         []
Firecracker, you waved in the night,
   []           []         []
Something that I saw was a flaming,
    []               []           []
Do you feel like, we left something here,
[]                []           []
Something worth coming back and cleaning?


[]                      []
Well I saw the lonley road,
                                 []
You left and said to me, don't follow,
                 []
Cause I'll only bring you sorrow.
[]                           []
And head on down my lonley road,
                                          []
You left and said, you said to me, Don't follow,
                       []
cause we'll sleep and drink for tomorrow,
[]                    []
And in the dead of night,
                                 []
You left and said to me, don't follow,
                 []
Cause I'll only bring you sorrow.
[]                      []
And head on down my lonley road,
You left and I just said
[riff one]
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
