Part Of The Union   by   Strawbs

CAPO: 3rd Fret


INTRO: D MajorD D-D-D

D MajorD           E minorEm
Now I'm a union man, amazed at what I am
 G+G     D MajorD        E minorEm   D MajorD
I say what I think, "That the company stinks"
   A augmentedA   G+G   D MajorD
Yes, I'm a union man


D MajorD                    E minorEm
When we meet at the local hall, I'll be voting with them all
    G+G     D MajorD      E minorEm      D MajorD
With a hell of a shout it's, "Out, brothers out"
    A augmentedA      G+G     D MajorD
And the rise of the factory's fall

CHORUS:
A augmentedA     D MajorD
Ohhhh, you don't get me I'm part of the union
  A augmentedA        D MajorD
You don't get me I'm part of the union
  D MajorD
You don't get me I'm part of the union
 G+G    D MajorD   E minorEm  G+G    A augmentedA   D MajorD
'Till the day I die, 'till the day I die


D MajorD                E minorEm
As a union man I'm wise, to the lies of the company spies
   G+G     D MajorD       E minorEm   D MajorD
And I don't get fooled by the factory rules
     A augmentedA       G+G     D MajorD
'Cause I always read between the lines.


D MajorD               E minorEm
And I always get my way, if I strike for higher pay
    G+G    D MajorD      E minorEm    D MajorD
When I show my card to the Scotland Yard
A augmentedA    G+G   D MajorD
This is what I say...


CHORUS:
A augmentedA     D MajorD
Ohhhh, you don't get me I'm part of the union
  A augmentedA        D MajorD
You don't get me I'm part of the union
  D MajorD
You don't get me I'm part of the union
 G+G    D MajorD   E minorEm  G+G    A augmentedA   D MajorD  D MajorD D-D-D
'Till the day I die, 'till the day I die

INSTRUMENTAL: A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD D MajorD G+G D MajorD E minorEm G+G A augmentedA D MajorD


D MajorD                E minorEm
Before the union did appear, my life was half as clear
     G+G    D MajorD      E minorEm   D MajorD
Now I've got the power to the working hour
   A augmentedA     G+G     D MajorD
And every other day in the year


D MajorD                 E minorEm
So though I'm a working man, I can ruin the government's plan
      G+G    D MajorD     E minorEm     D MajorD
Though I'm not too hard, the sight of my card
     A augmentedA      G+G  D MajorD
Makes me some kind of Superman


CHORUS:
A augmentedA     D MajorD
Ohhhh, you don't get me I'm part of the union
  A augmentedA        D MajorD
You don't get me I'm part of the union
  D MajorD
You don't get me I'm part of the union
 G+G    D MajorD   E minorEm  G+G    A augmentedA   D MajorD
'Till the day I die, 'till the day I die


CHORUS:
A augmentedA  D MajorD
You don't get me I'm part of the union
  A augmentedA        D MajorD
You don't get me I'm part of the union
  D MajorD
You don't get me I'm part of the union
 G+G    D MajorD   E minorEm  G+G    A augmentedA   D MajorD  A-D
