There is power in a factory, power in the land
G D Dsus4 D
Power in the hand of the worker
G C
But it all amounts to nothing if together we don't stand
G D G
There is power in a Union
G C
Now the lessons of the past were all learned with workers blood
G D Dsus4 D
The mistakes of the bosses we must pay for
G C
From the cities and the farmlands to trenches full of mud
G D G
War has always been the bosses way, sir
G
The Union forever defending our rights
D
Down with the blackleg, all workers unite
G C
With our brothers and our sisters from many far-off lands
G D G
There is power in a Union
G C
Now I long for the morning that they realise
G D Dsus4 D
Brutality and unjust laws cannot defeat us
G C
But who'll defend the workers who cannot organise
G D G
When the bosses send there lackeys out to cheat us?
G
Money speaks for money, the Devil for his own
D
Who comes to speak for the skin and the bone?
G C
What a comfort to the widow, a light to the child
G D G
There is power in a Union
