Vera Vanderlaan - Freedom Is A Hammer [1960s Right-wing Folk] chords
Start Jamming...
Freedom is a hammer, freedom is a hammer, freedom is a hammer, may it [F] forever reign.
Once it was very weak and once it was small, when it struck upon the world it wasn't hurt [Cm] at all,
but [Bb] a small band of patriots believed in it so long, they [C] knew that if enough men willed it would grow big and strong.
[F] So they took it to the forge of life and heated it with fire, the fire of men for liberty and [Fm] freedom's strong [Bb] desire.
And as they coiled and pulled and dug you could see that hammer grow, [C] and when it struck the world again it struck a mighty blow.
[F] Freedom is a hammer, freedom is a hammer, freedom is a hammer, [C] may it [F] forever reign.
And the word of it began to spread, it quickened all men's hearts, to long-haired tyranny prevailed, now was the time to [Bb] start
a country where all men could live together proud and free, [C] and so they came to help it ring and fight for liberty.
[F] And as each one grasped it hard to raise it up so high, that hammer became stronger, it rang into the sky,
[Bb] each time it struck the anvil of human [C] destiny, its sound was heard around the world and America was [F] free.
Oh, freedom is a hammer, freedom is a hammer, freedom is a hammer, may it forever reign.
Well that hammer is still ringing now, it hasn't ceased to grow, it's red with blood of millions who have died to keep it so.
[Bb] Those of us here have prospered under its mighty [C] arm, and tempered with the love of God it's kept us from all harm.
[F] But that hammer is in danger now, from a ruthless cunning foe, those working hearts are smashed, keep it still forevermore.
[Bb] We must not let that happen, we must stand strong and true, [C] that hammer is respart, without it we are through.
[F] Oh, freedom is a hammer, freedom is a hammer, freedom is [C] a hammer, may it ring, may it [F] ring.
Freedom is a hammer, freedom is a hammer, freedom is a hammer, [C] may it forever [F] ring.
