Tom: G
G D Am7 D G
[Verse 1]
G
She sucks on the bottle
D
Holds it in her hand
Am7 G
And thinks its shaped like a woman
G D
Shes seventeen, not yet a woman
Am7 Bm7 G
But the beer is cold and it tastes like freedom
[Chorus]
Em
And she likes it
D G
It feels good
C G D
This is Independence, Indiana
Em
And she likes that
D G
It feels good
C G
Life may never be as sweet again
D C G D Am7 Bm7 G
As Independence, Indiana
[Verse 2]
G
If you ask her
D
She'll tell you high school sucks
Am7 Bm7 G
People say shes just like her mother
G
But she's got a boyfriend
D
And he's got a car
Am7 Bm7 G
And they just can't keep their hands off each other
[Chorus]
Em
And she likes it
D G
It feels good
C G D
This is Independence, Indiana
Em
And she likes that
D G
It feels good
C G
Life may never be as sweet again
D C G
As Independence, Indiana
[Bridge]
Em C G
And all her friends seem hell-bent
D
On getting out of town
Em C G
They say I'm moving up
D Em
And this place just drags me down
C G D Em
Shes about had enough of waving brave goodbyes
C G
The greyhound bus, the sighing brakes
D Em C G D
Nothing else makes such desperate sense
G
She sucks on the bottle
D
Holds it up to the light
Am7 G
And thinks beer is so underrated
G
But she's got a boyfriend
D
And he's got a car
Am7 Bm7 G
And life just ain't that complicated
[Chorus]
Em
And she likes it
D G
It feels good
C G D
This is Independence, Indiana
Em
And she likes that
D G
It feels good
C G
Life may never be as sweet again
D C G D Am Bm C G
As Independence, Indiana
