Part Of The Union Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

pick a C then F / / /

FNow I'm a union man,

GmAmazed at what I am

A♯I say what I Fthink - that the A♯company Fstinks

 Yes, CI'm a A♯union Fman.

FWhen we meet at the local hall

GmI'll be voting with them all

A♯With a hell of a Fshout it's "A♯out brothers Fout"

 And the rCise of the A♯factory's Ffall

Chorus

COhhhh, you dFon't get me I'm part of the union

 You Cdon't get me I'm pFart of the union

 You Fdon't get me I'm part of the union

 'A♯Till the Fday I A♯die, 'A♯till the Cday I Fdie

As a union man I'm wise,

To the lies of the company spies

And I don't get fooled by the factory rules

'Cause I always read between the lines.

And I always get my way

If I strike for higher pay

When I show my card to the Scotland Yard

This is what I say :

Chorus

Before the union did appear

My life was half as clear

Now I've got the power to the working hour

And every other day in the year.

So though I'm a working man

I can ruin the governments plan

Though I'm not too hard, the sight of my card

Makes me some kind of Superman.

Chorus and repeat

Note: Hudson & Ford did well a few years later with a band

called The Monks (Nice legs, shame about her face, Drugs in my

pocket)
