[Intro]
G+G C majorC G/BG/B A minorAm G+G C majorC D MajorD

[Verse 1]
   G+G    D MajorD       E minorEm
In October '36 they took a trip
      B minorBm
The men who made the ships
C majorC               D MajorD
Searching for some kind of salvation
   G+G         D MajorD
With head held high and dignified
  E minorEm        B minorBm
The townsfolk and the passers by
C majorC               D MajorD
Held them in some kind of admiration

[Chorus]
G+G    D MajorD      E minorEm   C majorC G+G
March on__, Marshall Riley's army
         B minorBm          D MajorD
Marching for your rights you've surely earned them

Soldiers in the frontline
    E minorEm        B minorBm
Of the struggle for the right to work
  C majorC                 D MajorD
Did god give me these hands just to be idle?
     G+G      D MajorD
While his holiness the Bishop
     E minorEm         B minorBm
With his infinite Christian wisdom
   C majorC                D MajorD
Like Peter when the cock crew, had denied them

[Verse 3]
    G+G        D MajorD
And the yes-men and the press-men
     E minorEm  B minorBm
To London town all came down
C majorC                  D MajorD
Brought with them the curious and deranged
  G+G        D MajorD
And forty years has since gone past
      E minorEm             B minorBm
But you're still down there if you're working class
  C majorC            D MajorD
Can anybody tell me what has changed?
