Originally played by Joe Hill, this is one of the most famous IWW songs.  To the
tune of There is Power in the Blood of the Lamb.

G (320003@1)                        C (x32010@1)       G (320003@1)
Would you have freedom from wage slavery?
     D (xx0232@1)                 G (320003@1)
Then join in the grand industrial band
                  C (x32010@1)     G (320003@1)
Would you from mis'ry and hunger be free
       D (xx0232@1)                    G (320003@1)
Then come do your share like a man


CHORUS:
G (320003@1)
There is power, There is power,
     C (x32010@1)            G (320003@1)
in a band of working men
          D (xx0232@1)           G (320003@1)
When they stand hand in hand
G (320003@1)
There is power, There is power,
          C (x32010@1)           G (320003@1)
that must rule in every land
    D (xx0232@1)              G (320003@1)One industrial union grand
 
-Chorus-

G (320003@1)                         C (x32010@1)         G (320003@1)
Would you have mansions of gold in the sky
        D (xx0232@1)                 G (320003@1)
And live in a shack, way in the back?
                        C (x32010@1)       G (320003@1)
Would you have wings up in Heaven to fly
        D (xx0232@1)                    G (320003@1)
And starve here with rags on your back?

-Chorus-

If you've had enough of the blood of the lamb
Then join in the grand industrial band
If, for a change, you'd have eggs and ham
Then come do your share like a man

-Chorus-

If you like sluggers to beat off your head
Then don't organize, all unions despise
If you want nothing before you are dead
Shake hands with your boss and look wise

-Chorus-

Come all ye workers, from every land
Come join the grand industrial band
Then we our share of this earth shall demand
Come on, do your share like a man

-Chorus-
