[Verse 1]~
A E
As we go marching marching in the beauty of the day,..
A B7 E7
A million darkened kitchens,.. a thousand mill lofts gray,..
A F#m D E7
Are touched with all the radiance that a sudden sun discloses,..
A D E A
For the people hear us singing "Bread and roses! Bread and roses!"
[Verse 2]~
A E
As we go marching,.. marching,.. we battle too for men,..
A B7 E7
For they are women's children,.. and we mother them again!
A F#m D E7
Our lives shall not be sweated from birth until life closes;
A D E A
Hearts starve as well as bodies; give us bread but give us roses!
[Verse 3]~
A E
As we go marching,.. marching,.. unnumbered women dead
A B7 E7
Go crying through our singing their ancient cry for bread!
A F#m D E7
Small art and love and beauty their drudging spirits knew!
A D E A
Yes,.. it is bread we fight for - but we fight for roses,.. too!
[Verse 4]~
A E
As we go marching,.. marching,.. we bring the greater days!
A B7 E7
The rising of the women means the rising of the race!
A F#m D E7
No more the drudge and idler - ten that toil where one reposes,..
A D E A
But a sharing of life's glories - Bread and roses! Bread and roses!
