[Verse 1]
[E] [F#m]
I guess I planted some long lonesome seed of a song
[C#m] [Bm] [A]
Way down inside me long ago
[E] [F#m]
And now I can't remember when it was
[C#m] [Bm] [A]
But it joined up with the rest of them and grows
[E] [A]
It's such a little song it don't compare
[E] [A]
With all your big ones you hear everywhere
[E] [C#m] [B]
But when it dawns way in the back of your mind
[C#m] [Bm] [A]
The big ones are made up of the little kind
[Chorus 2x]
[E] [A] [E] [A]
Union Song. Union Battled.
[E] [C#m] [F#m] [E]
All added up. Won us all what we got now.
[Verse 2- same chords as Verse 1]
I can't even start to look around here
Without hearing this song
And seeing all of us first seperated,
Hurt, apart and afraid
And hungry for the union
And so we kept on
Singing and working, fighting till we got it.
And this is the big union song I guess I hear.
[Chorus 2x]
[Bridge]
[A] [G#] [F#m] [E]
[Solo over Verse part]
We fought there at your place
We fought there on your ship
And I guess if you missed out on
The fight for our union,
You missed out on one awful big step
Us people took.
[Chorus with "na na"s]
[Chorus with words]
