Joe Hill
A A7 D A
I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night,as live as you and me,
D A E
Says I to Joe your ten years dead,I never died says he,
E7 A
I never died says he,
2
The copper bosses shot you Joe they filled you up with lead,
Takes more than guns to kill a man says Joe and I ain't dead
Says Joe and I ain't dead.
3
From saltlake city Joe said I him stand by my bed,
They framed you on a murder charge,
Says Joe but I ain't dead,says Joe but I ain't dead.
4
And standing there as big as life,and smiling with hes eyes,
Says Joe what they forgot to kill,went on to organise,
Went on to organise.
5
Joe Hill ain't dead he said to me,Joe Hill ain't never died,
Where working men defend their rights,
Joe Hill is by their side,Joe Hill is by their side.
6
From San Diego up to Maine,in every mine and mill,
Where workers strike and organise,
Says he you'll find Joe Hill,says he you'll find Joe Hill.
