Verse 1:
(A)      D             G
When the troubles of a whole wide world 
D                     A
come knocking on your door
            D             G
and there's problems of a different kind
            G         A
that you've never had before
            D                 G
when you're playin' against a gale force wind
       D               A
and it changes at half time
        A                  G
and you find your strength deserting you
       G         A
and an emptiness inside

Chorus:
             G      A         D
When there's people that will harm you
              D       G       D 
though you've done to them no wrong
     D                  G
it's time to sing, it's time to sing
G               A     
sing a powerful song

Repeat intro

Verse 2: (same chords)

When they want to ruin our province
just to turn it into gold,
when they think our greatest asset
can be mined, dug up and sold,
when the factories are all closing, 
like they are in our home town,
and your friends are looking out for work
that's nowhere to be found,

Chorus 2: (same chords)

When the spirits they need a-risin'
to be happy, proud and strong,
it's time to sing, it's time to sing, 
sing a powerful song,
