[Verse]
            E                        
The evil it spread like a fever ahead
       D              E       D      
It was night when you died my firefly
                  E       A                  E   
What could I have said to raise you from the dead
         D        E                    D   
Oh could I be the sky on the Fourth of July
         E         A   
Well you do enough talk
E         A    E          D  
My little hawk why do you cry
        E            A              E         A   
Tell me what did you learn from the Tillamook burn
       E         D   
Or the Fourth of July
                D  
We're all gonna die

[Verse]
               E          A            E   
Sitting at the bed with a halo at your head
       D     E                    D   
Was it all a disguise like junior high
                             A          E         
Where everything was fiction future and prediction
Bm7 D          E           D     
Now ■ where am I My fading supply
        E          A    E         A   
Did you get enough love my little dove
E          D  
Why do you cry
        E     Amaj7                         
And I'm sorry I left but it was for the best
                     D    
Though it never felt right
D                   
My little Versailles

[Verse]
             E                A       E   
The hospital asked Should the body be cast
         D   E                      D  
Before I say goodbye my star in the sky
             E                              
Such a funny thought to wrap you up in cloth
       Bm7  D      E        D        
Do you find it all right my dragonfly


[Chorus]
         E           A    E         A    Amaj7
Shall we look at the moon my little loon ■    
C#m        Dmaj7
Why do you cry  
                      F#m7 E           F#m7 A
Make the most of your life while it is rife ■
E           D    
While it is light
Dmaj7                    F#m 
■     Well you do enough talk
               E          D  
My little hawk why do you cry
Dmaj7                      F#m                          
■     Tell me what did you learn from the Tillamook burn
       E         D   
Or the Fourth of July
D                  
We're all gonna die
