Verse1:
      A5                 D5
Stand up all victims of oppression 
        E5                A5     E5
For the tyrants fear your might
      A5                     D5
Don't cling so hard to your possessions 
             E5                    A5
For you have nothing if you have no rights 
    E5      B5           E5
Let racist ignorance be ended
      B5                      E5   B5
For respect makes the empires fall
           E5       E5       A5
Freedom is merely privilege extended
         E5        B5      E5   E5
Unless enjoyed by one and all

Chorus:
        A5            D5
So come brothers and sisters
         E5              A5  E5
For the struggle carries on
    A5     E5   F#5 C#5 
The Inter-national - E5 
 D5         B5       E5    E5
Unites the world in song
        A5            D5
So come comrades and rally
         E5              A5    A5
For this is the time and place
    F#5       B5
The international ideal
 A5         E5    A5 
Unites the human race

Verse 2:
Let no one build walls to divide us
Walls of hatred or walls of stone
Come greet the dawn and stand beside us
We'll live together or we'll die alone
In our world poisoned by exploitation
Those who have taken, now they must give
And end the vanity of nations
We have but one world on which to live

[Chorus]

Verse 3:
And so begins the final drama
In the streets and in the fields
We stand unbowed before their armor
We defy their guns and shields
When we fight provoked by their aggression
Let us be inspired by life and love
For though they offer us concessions
Change will not come from above

[Chorus]
