There Is Power In A Union Ukulele Chords

[Verse 1]
G                             C
There is power in a factory, power in the land
G                         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
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
 
[Chorus]
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
 
[Verse 2]
G                                 C
Now I long for the morning that they realise
G                                   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
 
[Chorus]
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
