The Land Chords & Lyrics - Misc Unsigned Bands - Liberal Democrats Glee Club

[G]Sound the call for freedom boys, and [C]sound it far and [G]wide,
[G]March along to victory, for [D]God is on our side,
[G]While the voice of nature thunders [C]o'er the rising [G]tide:
[D]"God gave the land to[G] the people."

[CHORUS]

[G]The land, the land,
'Twas [C]God who made the [G]land,
[G]The land, the land,
The [D]ground on which we stand,
[G]Why should we be beggars
With a [C]ballot in our [G]hand?
[D]God gave the land to the [G]people.

(rest of the song follows the same pattern)

Hark! The sound is spreading from the east and from the west!
Why should we work hard and let the landlords take the best?
Make them pay their taxes on the land just like the rest!
The land was meant for the people.

[CHORUS]

Clear the way for liberty, the land must all be free,
None of us shall falter from the fight tho' stern shall be.
'Til the flag we love so well shall fly from sea to sea,
O'er the land that is free for the people.

[CHORUS]

The army now is marching on, the battle to begin,
The standard now is raised on high to face the battle din,
We'll never cease from fighting 'til the victory we win,
And the land is free for the people.

[CHORUS
