Capo:no capo
[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
C F
Fellow workers pay attention to what I’m going to mention,
C D7 G
For it is the fixed intention of the Workers of the World.
C F
And we should all be ready, true-hearted, brave and steady,
G C C7
To rally ’round our standard when the red flag is unfurled.
[Chorus]
F C F C
Where the Fraser river flows, every fellow worker knows,
D G
They have bullied and oppressed us, but still our union grows.
C F
And we’re going to find a way, friends, for shorter hours and better pay, friends
G C
And we’re going to win the day, friends, where the river Fraser flows.
[Verse 2]
C F
For these gunny-sack contractors have all been dirty actors,
C D7 G
And they’re not our benefactors, as each fellow worker knows.
C F
So we’ve got to stick together in fine or dirty weather,
G C C7
And we will show no white feather, where the Fraser river flows.
[Chorus]
F C F C
Where the Fraser river flows, every fellow worker knows,
D G
They have bullied and oppressed us, but still our union grows.
C F
And we’re going to find a way, friends, for shorter hours and better pay, friends
G C
And we’re going to win the day, friends, where the river Fraser flows.

[Verse 3]
C F
Now the boss the law is stretching, bulls and pimps he’s fetching,
C D7 G
And they are a fine collection, as Jesus only knows.
C F
But why their mothers reared them, and why the devil spared them,
G C C7
Are questions we can’t answer, where the Fraser River flows.
[Chorus]

Where the Fraser river flows, every fellow worker knows,

They have bullied and oppressed us, but still our union grows.

And we’re going to find a way, friends, for shorter hours and better pay, friends
G C
And we’re going to win the day, friends, where the river Fraser flows.
