Celebration Day is a cool song (Texts of songs ) that`s easy to play if you
practice it for a while. Make sure you listen to it a few times before
you attempt to play it. The entire song (Texts of songs ) is in 4/4 so it should be easy to
keep up. I think this song (Texts of songs ) is in A. Special thanks to Josh M. Johnson
who tabbed the solo.

Song Progression:
[Riff 1] x2
With [Riff 1]:
Her face is cracked from smiling,
all the fears that she`s been hiding,
and it seems that pretty soon
evr`ybody`s gonna know.
And her voice is sore from shouting,
cheering winners who are losing,
and she wonders if their days are few
and soon they`ll have to go.
[Riff 1] once more, then
With [Riff 2]: (chords shown here for reference)
C G
My, my, my, I`m so happy,
Bb F
I`m gonna join the band.
C G
We are gonna dance and sing in celebration,
Bb F E
we are in the promised land.
With [Riff 1]:
She hears them talk of new ways
to protect the home she lives in,
Then she wonders what it`s all about
when they break down the door.
Her name is Brown or White or Black;
you know her very well.
You hear her cries of mercy
as the winners toll the bell.
With [Riff 2]:
My, my, my, I`m so happy,
I`m gonna join the band.
We are gonna sing and dance in celebration,
we are in the promised land.
There is a train that leaves the station
heading for your destination,
But the price you pay to nowhere
has increased a dollar more. Yes, it has!
And if you walk you`re gonna get there
although it takes a little longer,
And when you see it in the distance
you will wring your hands and moan.
Repeat [Riff 1] until fade out
