For those looking to play this song on an acoustic guitar this was how I sounded it out.
Intro (Sounds strange because of brass section)
C-G-Am-F
C-G-F-G
CI still remember that nGight it was the fourth of July
AmStill engraved in my mEind and I'm not sur-pFrised
FGang wars no Cguns hand to hand
FYou're black I'm white he's purple but I Gstill don't under-Cstand
CI'm gonna be alright GI'm gonna be okay
AmEverything is going to be Cfi-i-i-i-Fine
Fback off cause I Cwanna be alone
FI want to think it out and I'm Gthinking that I want to go Fhome.
FLook who's laughing Amnow.
FI'll pull it off Gsomehow.
(Chorus)
FAs I passed her Gby, CI could see her Amcry-y-Fy
Fand I'll never Gforget the Clook that was in her Ameye
Fand the Gmusic you know it played Con & and oAmn & on
Amso Fwon't somebody tap her on the Gshoulder Ctell her life goes on.
C-G-Am-F
C-G-F-G
C3 years 2 months G1 week 4 days
AmI'm always counting down cause there Eain't no easier Fway
Ftrust me you Cknow that I tried
Fand if I said it was easy then you Gknow that I told a Clie.
CI'm going to Gbe al-Amright
AmI'm going to Cbe just Ffine.
FOne down five Cbillion to go.
FAm I the next in line and do I Greally want to Fknow?
FLook who's laughing Amnow.
FI'll pull it off Gsomehow.
(Chorus)
FAs I passed her Gby, CI could see her Amcry-y-Fy
Fand I'll never Gforget the Clook that was in her Ameye
Fand the Gmusic you know it played Con & and oAmn & on
Amso Fwon't somebody tap her on the Gshoulder Ctell her life goes on.

The rest of the song is repetition of all of the same chords mostly with just the two
back to back.
If you look up the lyrics or listen to the song you'll see what I mean but its pretty
to figure out.
