Judy Collins – Bread And Roses (Guitar)

   A                              D             E
As we go marching marching in the beauty of the day,

  A                            B7                  E7
A million darkened kitchens, a thousand mill lofts gray,

    A                                    D             E7
Are touched with all the radiance that a sudden sun discloses,

        A              F#m                 D                E A
For the people hear us singing: "Bread and roses! Bread and roses!"

   A                            D              E
As we go marching, marching, we battle too for men,

    A                                 B7           E7
For they are women's children, and we mother them again.

    A                               D                E7
Our lives shall not be sweated from birth until life closes;

       A                 F#m             D                 E A
Hearts starve as well as bodies; give us bread but give us roses!

   A                           D              E
As we go marching, marching, unnumbered women dead

   A                                B7               E7
Go crying through our singing their ancient call for bread.

      A                             D                E7
Small art and love and beauty their drudging spirits knew.

     A              F#m                D         E      A
Yes, it is bread we fight for - but we fight for roses, too!

   A                            D                 E
As we go marching, marching, we bring the greater days.

    A                             B7            E7
The rising of the women means the rising of the race.

   A                                    D                E7
No more the drudge and idler - ten that toil where one reposes,

      A                 F#m                 D                E A
But a sharing of life's glories - Bread and roses! Bread and roses!
