I Guess I Planted

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.
