CAPO 4

INTRO:
Am

VERSE:
Am           E      Am
I come from East Virginia
             C      Em        Am
Where I was born an old back shed

   Am      E          Am
My father moved us to New Orleans
              C        Em       Am
Where he was forced to use his hands

Am                        E        Am
Then late one night they took him away from us
             C        Em       Am
Because he learned to use his head

Am               E        Am
My mother cried when the judge said "life"
    C     Em            Am
The union was his only crime

Am                  E      Am
I'm still told to leave it all behind
             C        Em           Am
I spent my whole life on a picket line

Screaming,


CHORUS:
 C        F
Workers Unite
       C           G
Don't give up the fight
 C              F      C
Workers of the world unite.
  G    Am
Unite!


VERSE:
Am                  E           Am
At my old age I'm still working as a slave
              C       Em       Am
Those bosses work you to your grave

Am                E    Am
They claim to be like common folk
                   C        Em          Am
They packed their bags when the levees broke

Am                    E            Am
For five long days I watched those waters rise
          C          Em     Am
I was forgotten and left to die

Am                   E   Am
I've got no country I've got no home
   C          Em     Am
Or no one to call my own

Am                    E      Am
I'm driftin' back to East Virginia 
           C           Em        Am
I'm going back to that ol' dark shed

Am          E       Am
I remember what my father said
             C          Em       Am
When he was waiting on line for bread

Screaming, 


CHORUS:
 C        F
Workers Unite
       C           G
Don't give up the fight
 C              F      C
Workers of the world unite.
  G    
Unite!


CHORUS:
 C        F
Workers Unite
       C           G
Don't give up the fight
 C              F      C
Workers of the world unite.
  G     Am
Uni-i-i-ite!
