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 G#m 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] E A E A Union Song. Union Battled. E C#m F#m B E All added up. Won us all what we got now. E A E A Union Song. Union Battled. E C#m F#m B E All added up. Won us all what we got now. [Verse 2] E F#m I can't even start to look around here C#m Bm A Without hearing this song E F#m And seeing all of us first separated, C#m Bm A Hurt, apart and afraid E A And hungry for the union E A And so we kept on E C#m B G#m Singing and working, fighting till we got it. C#m Bm A And this is the big union song I guess I hear. [Chorus] E A E A Union Song. Union Battled. E C#m F#m E All added up. Won us all what we got now. E A E A Union Song. Union Battled. E C#m F#m E All added up. Won us all what we got now. [Bridge] A G#m F#m B E F#m C#m Bm A E F#m C#m Bm A [Verse 3] E F#m A We fought there at your place C#m Bm A We fought there on your ship E F#m And I guess if you missed out on C#m Bm or G#m The fight for our union, C#m B#m A E A You missed out on one awful big step ....... us people took. [Chorus] E A E A Union Song. Union Battled. E C#m F#m E All added up. Won us all what we got now. E A E A Union Song. Union Battled. E C#m F#m E All added up. Won us all what we got now.
