Boom Pop Sizzle
Fireworks over the Gulf and somebody worth holding onto while the sky goes off.

Verse 1
Blanket spread out on the cool summer grass
Paper plate dinner, sweet tea in a glass
Sparkler in your hand drawin' shapes in the air
Glow stick crown all tangled in your hair
Whole town gathered 'round the river bend
Waitin' for the magic to begin
Pre-Chorus
Then the first one cracks and you grab my hand
Light up the sky like it was all just planned
Chorus
Boom — pop — sizzle, baby
Stars fallin' down on you and me
Red sparks flyin', heart on fire
Best dang show I'll ever see
Boom — pop — sizzle, honey
Hold me close while the whole sky shakes
You and me and the Fourth of July
And every kiss the thunder makes
Boom — pop — sizzle
Verse 2
Smoke on the breeze, smell of cotton candy air
Kids chasin' bottle rockets everywhere
Lawn chairs lined up like a front-row seat
Ice cream meltin' down to your feet
Green, gold, silver, blue
Brightest thing out here is you
Pre-Chorus
Then the grand finale lights your face
And the whole world stops in this little place
Chorus
Boom — pop — sizzle, baby
Stars fallin' down on you and me
Red sparks flyin', heart on fire
Best dang show I'll ever see
Boom — pop — sizzle, honey
Hold me close while the whole sky shakes
You and me and the Fourth of July
And every kiss the thunder makes
Boom — pop — sizzle
Bridge
Boom! — that's my heart
Pop! — when you smile
Sizzle! — yeah baby
Stay right here a while
1, 2, 3, 4 —
Final Chorus
Boom — pop — sizzle, baby
Stars fallin' down on you and me
Red sparks flyin', heart on fire
Best dang show I'll ever see
Boom — pop — sizzle, honey
Hold me close while the whole sky shakes
You and me and the Fourth of July
And every kiss the thunder makes
Outro
Boom — pop — sizzle
Just you and me and the Fourth of July
Boom — pop — sizzle

Generated from the chord chart. These are real guitar shapes for the chords we detected, not a transcription of what was played on the record.
Raw note map (experimental)
This is the unfiltered pitch detection across the whole mix — vocals, bass and drums included — mapped onto a fretboard. It is not a playable arrangement and no one should try to read it as one. It is here only because it is the raw material everything else was built from.
Download note mapA lead sheet, not a full score. The melody line has been reduced automatically from the recording and paired with the detected chords. Expect the shape of the tune to be right and the details to be approximate.
