G
When the union's inspiration through the workers' blood shall run
          C                      G    
There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun
G                          B7              Em
Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one
        Am    D7       G
For the Union makes us strong

(Chorus)
G
Solidarity forever
C           G
Solidarity forever
G           B7   Em
Solidarity forever
        Am    D7       G
For the union makes us strong

G
Is there aught we hold in common with the greedy parasite 
          C                              G  
Who would lash us into serfdom and would crush us with his might?
G                      B7           Em  
Is there anything left to us but to organize and fight?  
        Am    D7       G
For the union makes us strong


(Chorus)
G
Solidarity forever
C           G
Solidarity forever
G           B7   Em
Solidarity forever
        Am    D7       G
For the union makes us strong

G
It is we who ploughed the prairies, built the cities where they trade
        C                                      G  
Dug the mines and built the workshops, endless miles of railroad laid
G                         B7               Em
Now we stand outcast and starving 'mid the wonders we have made
        Am    D7       G
But the union makes us strong 


(Chorus)
G
Solidarity forever
C           G
Solidarity forever
G           B7   Em
Solidarity forever
        Am    D7       G
For the union makes us strong

G
All the world that's owned by idle drones is ours and ours alone 
        C                                   G  
We have laid the wide foundations, built it skyward stone by stone 
G                                   B7            Em
It is ours, not to slave in, but to master and to own  
        Am    D7       G
While the union makes us strong


(Chorus)
G
Solidarity forever
C           G
Solidarity forever
G           B7   Em
Solidarity forever
        Am    D7       G
For the union makes us strong

G
They have taken untold millions that they never toiled to earn
        C                              G  
But without our brain and muscle not a single wheel can turn
G                                         B7              Em
We can break their haughty power gain our freedom when we learn
        Am    D7       G
That the Union makes us strong


(Chorus)
G
Solidarity forever
C           G
Solidarity forever
G           B7   Em
Solidarity forever
        Am    D7       G
For the union makes us strong

G
In our hands is placed a power greater than their hoarded gold
        C                             G  
Greater than the might of armies magnified a thousandfold
G                       B7                 Em
We can bring to birth a new world from the ashes of the old
        Am    D7       G
For the Union makes us strong
