Verse 1:
D                               F#m
Ooh, ooh, little red, with your heart in Stalingrad
       Em                                   A
Oh, it kills me how they hate you, but they just don't understand
D                         F#m
Oh, oh-oh, red, when they put me on the stand
       Em                           A                              D
I will testify I loved you, and I'm not ashamed to be your comrade

Ooh, ooh, little red, its not like McCarthy said
          Em                     A
Though we differ on religion, we both support the working man
D                      F#m
Oh, oh-oh, red, if the bombs fall on our lands
         Em                        A                         D
