Chords with lyrics

G+G              C majorC
Would you have freedom from Wage slavery,
D MajorD            G+G
Then join in the grand Industrial band;
             C majorC
Would you from mis'ry and hunger be free,
D MajorD                G+G
Then come, do your share, like a man.


(Chorus)
     G+G             C majorC       G+G
There is power, there is power in a band of workingmen,
     D MajorD       G+G
When they stand hand in hand,
                     C majorC       G+G
That's a power, that's a power That must rule in every land?"
   D MajorD       G+G
One Industrial Union Grand.

G+G             C majorC
Would you have mansions of gold in the sky,
  D MajorD        G+G
and live in a shack, way in the back?
              C majorC
Would you have wings up in heaven to fly,
  D MajorD               G+G
And starve here with rags on your back?


  G+G            C majorC
If you've had 'nuff of the "blood of the lamb"
   D MajorD          G+G
Then join in the grand industrial band;
              C majorC
If, for a change, you would have eggs and ham,

Then come, do your share, like a man.

Then don't organize, all unions despise.
          C majorC
If you want nothing before you are dead,
   D MajorD               G+G
Shake hands with your boss and look Wise.


G+G             C majorC
Come, all ye workers, from every land,

Then we our share of this earth shall demand.
   D MajorD             G+G
Come on! Do your share, like a man.
