CHORUS: 6 -5 5 6 7 -8 8 7 Solidarity forever, -6 -7 7 -7 7 -6 6 5 Solidarity forever, 6 -5 5 6 7 -8 8 7 Solidarity forever, 7 7 -8 -8 7 -7 7 For the union makes us strong.
6 6 6 6 6 -5 5 6 7 -8 8 8 8 -8 7 When the union's inspiration through the workers' blood shall run, -7 -7 -6 -6 -6 -7 7 -7 7 -6 6 -6 6 5 6 There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun 6 6 6 6 6 -5 5 6 7 -8 8 8 8 -8 7 Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one, 7 7 -8 -8 7 -7 7 But the union makes us strong. [Chorus] 6 6 6 6 6 -5 5 6 7 -8 8 8 8 -8 7 It is we who plowed the prairies; built the cities where they trade -7 -7 -6 -6 -6 -7 7 -7 7 -6 6 -6 6 5 6 Dug the mines and built the workshops, endless miles of railroad laid 6 6 6 6 6 -5 5 6 7 -8 8 8 8 -8 7 Now we stand outcast and starving midst the wonders we have made, 7 7 -8 -8 7 -7 7 But the union makes us strong. [Chorus] 6 6 6 6 6 -5 5 6 7 -8 8 8 8 -8 7 They have taken untold millions that they never toiled to earn, -7 -7 -6 -6 -6 -7 7 -7 7 -6 6 -6 6 5 6 But without our brain and muscle not a single wheel can turn. 6 6 6 6 6 -5 5 6 7 -8 8 8 8 -8 7 We can break their haughty power, gain our freedom when we learn 7 7 -8 -8 7 -7 7 That the union makes us strong. [Chorus] 6 6 6 6 6 -5 5 6 7 -8 8 8 8 -8 7 In our hands is placed a power greater than their hoarded gold, -7 -7 -6 -6 -6 -7 7 -7 7 -6 6 -6 6 5 6 Greater than the might of atoms, multiplied a thousand-fold. 6 6 6 6 6 -5 5 6 7 -8 8 8 8 -8 7 We can bring to birth a new world from the ashes of the old 7 7 -8 -8 7 -7 7 |
