Intro chords: 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.
CHORUS
D#5 C#5 G#5
“My body if I could choose to ashes it reduce.”
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:
CHORUS
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.
