Fourth of July Lyrics & Tabs by Astronautalis
Fourth of July
guitar chords lyrics
Three hundred butterflies, they wrapped them in her ribs
And now she cuts across the interstate, the world will choke on traffic
Me and cannonballs looking at the moon
Who's peeking over the edge like no good kids with water balloons
I wanna swallow the wind let it hollow me thin
And call a friend who's laughing like a, laughing like a criminal
She watches fireworks, launching and sparkling, spinning
Twenty kids live like giants making yearbook material
(Step by step by misstep oops I found myself in someone else's shoes) 4X
Nothing more heartbreaking than a car that's been stationed since… well long enough to let the grass grow up around its feet, 2X
Later I'll kiss the smile off your face and toss this shape into the Rio Grande
I could follow it along the riverbank to reach the beach and we could roll around in the sand
I wanna break the bank and crush the glasses, chase the tape, combat molasses
Face to face I punch the mattress: awake escape and trace the atlas
They case the place and ban the back flips. Leave the flashes to the books of matches.
I wanna break the bank and crush the glasses, chase the tape, combat molasses
Face to face I punch the mattress: awake escape and trace the atlas
They case the place and ban the back flips. Leave the flashes to the books of matches.
Today's the day, today's the day they catch us
Today's the day, today's the day we turn it backwards
Today is the day amazing things happen
Pass the buck, I've got a head full of handshakes. Dig a little deeper ‘til the hole runs dry as the light from the television flickers on the table and the angel on my shoulder rubs the sleep from his eyes. 4X
(Nothing more heartbreaking than a car that's been stationed since… well long enough to let the grass grow up around its feet. 4X)
(We're looking in, I'd never lie
That face is pressed against the glass
And now you've turned to gray)
I wanna Jump a million miles and look back at the lights, I wanna run so fast they get left behind 4X
Teeth bared broken noses twisted fingers swollen toes and I could do with another drink, I could do with another drink 2X
(I wanna Jump a million miles and look back at the lights, I wanna run so fast they get left behind 16X)
Nothing more heartbreaking than
A car that's been stationed since
Well long enough to
Long enough to let the grass grow up around its feet
Nothing more heartbreaking than
A car that's been stationed since
Well long enough to
Long enough to let the grass grow up around its feet
Nothing more heartbreaking than
A car that's been stationed since
Well long enough to
Long enough to let the grass grow up around its feet
Nothing more heartbreaking than
A car that's been stationed since
Well long enough to
Long enough to let the grass grow up around its feet
