- Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)
Verse 1:
G C G D7
We are a fighting for our Union, we're fighting for our trust,
G C D7 G
we're fighting for that happy land, where sleeps our fathers’ dust.
C G D7
It cannot be dissevered, though it cost us bloody wars,
G C D7 G
we never can give up the land, where floats the stripes and stars.
Chorus:
G D7 C G
Hurrah! Hurrah! for equal rights, hurrah!
G C D7 G
Hurrah! for the good old flag that bears the stripes and stars!
Verse 2: G C G D7 We trusted you as brothers, until you drew the sword, G C D7 G with impious hands at Sumpter you cut the silver cord. C G D7 So now you hear the bugles, we come, the sons of Mars, G C D7 G to rally round the brave old flag, that bears the stripes and stars. Chorus: G D7 C G Hurrah! Hurrah! for equal rights, hurrah! G C D7 G Hurrah! for the good old flag that bears the stripes and stars! Verse 3: G C G D7 We do not want your cotton, we do not want your slaves, G C D7 G but rather than divide the land, we'll fill your Southern graves. C G D7 With Lincoln for our chieftain, we wear our country's stars, G C D7 G and rally round the brave old flag that bears the stripes and stars. Chorus: G D7 C G Hurrah! Hurrah! for equal rights, hurrah! G C D7 G Hurrah! for the good old flag that bears the stripes and stars! Verse 4: G C G D7 We deem our cause most holy, we know we're in the right, G C D7 G and twenty million free men stand ready for the fight. C G D7 Our pride is fair Columbia, no stain her beauty mars, G C D7 G on her we'll raise the brave old flag that bears the stripes and stars. Chorus: G D7 C G Hurrah! Hurrah! for equal rights, hurrah! G C D7 G Hurrah! for the good old flag that bears the stripes and stars! Verse 5: G C G D7 And when this war is over, we'll each resume our home, G C D7 G and treat you still as brothers, where ever you may roam. C G D7 We'll pledge the hand of friendship, and think no more of war, G C D7 G but dwell in peace beneath the flag that bears the stripes and stars. Chorus: G D7 C G Hurrah! Hurrah! for equal rights, hurrah! G C D7 G Hurrah! for the good old flag that bears the stripes and stars!
