Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Friday nights on the seventh floor

Fourth of July, Brooklyn's on fire!

Paper backs on the corner store

Fourth of July, Brooklyn's on fire!

Looking over the ledge

 The sidewalk traffic starts to spread

 Summer's begun across the bay

 And no bit of silence remains

Oh, Brooklyn's on fire

 And it fills July hearts with desire

 Sleep will not come, until the morn

 Cause tonight your memories are born

La dee da, la dee da de da de daa

And the band's not begun just yet

Fourth of July, Brooklyn's on fire!

Fifty names you're bound to forget

Fourth of July, Brooklyn's on fire!

Black and blue on the lakes

 Wear badges from happier days

 Late in the night, in '84

 Walked in through the old out door

Oh, Brooklyn's on fire

 And it fills July hearts with desire

 Sleep will not come, until the morn

 Cause tonight your memories are born

La dee da, la dee da de da de daa

no words

Fourth of July, Brooklyn's on fire!

no words

Fourth of July, Brooklyn's on fire!

I'm caught in the way

Of tears from much happier days

 When we were young and unafraid

 Of stupid mistakes that we made

Oh, Brooklyn's on fire

 And it fills July hearts with desire

 Sleep will not come, until the morn

 Cause tonight your memories are born

La dee da, la dee da de da de daa
