Intro:     G#5         G#/C   C#5 


VERSE

     G#5                         G#/C               C#5 
In a letter to every president, congressman, career politician, 
     G#5                         
Scrawled in spite across the envelope 
     G#/C            C#5 
With all of our conviction. 
          G#5 
In only took a few hours for his peers 
     G#/C                C#5 
To find him guilty in a trail too fair, 
   G#5                            G#/C                C#5 
A wobblie, immigrant worker has no place among the living. 



[Refrão]

  D#5                         C#5                  G#5 
’My body if I could choose to ashes it reduce.â? 

N/C 
Murdered by the capitalist, 

         G#/C        C#5 
November 1915 be careful of what you wish. 
       G#5                      G#/C        C#5                  
Who is wrong and who is righteous? 
          G#5                       
What was stolen from us we will replace, 
 G#/C                    C#5      
Off with the head on the body we feast, 
  G#5   
Who is wrong and who is righteous, 
      G#/C        - one strum  
Will never be our own decision. 


INTRO X4 


VERSE
  
          G#5                                G#/C                 C#5 
He yelled fire to the squad with guns, they stopped his heart from beating. 
         G#5                          G#/C            C#5 
Every word he wrote, he spoke, he sung, we are still singing: 



[Refrão]

      D#5                      C#5    
’My body if I could choose to ashes it reduce, 
      D#5                         C#5    
And let the breezes blow my dust to where some flowers grow. 
   D#5                                 C#5    
Perhaps some fading flower then would come to life and bloom again. 


BRIDGE

G#5   A#5   C5    C#5   x4 


        G#5            A#5 
If the workers take a notion, 
           C5               C#5 
They can stop all speeding trains, 
      G#5            A#5 
Every ship upon the ocean. 
         C5               C#5 
They can tie with mighty chains 
       G#5            A#5 
Every wheel in the creation, 
       C5             C#5 
Every mine and every mill. 
            G#5           A#5 
Fleets and armies of all nations 
             C5                            C#5           - one strum 
Will at our command stand   (pause)       still.
