There's a great and a bloody fight 'round this whole world tonight
                    G+G
And the battle, the bombs and shrapnel reign

Hitler told the world around he would tear our union down

But our union's gonna break them slavery chains

Our union's gonna break them slavery chains

I walked up on a mountain in the middle of the sky
                G+G
Could see every farm and every town
    C majorC             FF     C majorC
I could see all the people in this whole wide world

That's the union that'll tear old Hitler down
                 G+G    C majorC
That's the union that'll tear the fascists down

When I think of the men and the ships going down
                    G+G
While the Russians fight on across the dawn
    C majorC          FF    C majorC
There's London in ruins and Paris in chains

Good people, what are we waiting on?
         G+G       C majorC
Good people, what are we waiting on?

Yes, I thank the Soviets and the mighty Chinese vets
              G+G
Allies the whole wide world around

To the battling British, thanks, you can have ten million Yanks

If it takes 'em to tear the fascists down, down, down
          G+G         C majorC
If it takes 'em to tear the fascists down


C majorC
But when I think of the ships and the men going down
                    G+G
While the Russians fight on across the dawn
    C majorC          FF    C majorC
There's London in ruins and Paris in chains

Good people, what are we waiting on?
         G+G       C majorC
Good people, what are we waiting on?


C majorC
So I thank the Soviets and the mighty Chinese vets
              G+G
Allies the whole wide world around

To the battling British, thanks, you can have ten million Yanks

If it takes 'em to tear the fascists down, down, down

If it takes 'em to tear the fascists down
