As the [Dm] Judas bus goes [G] by, and [Gm] they flash their piece [Dm] of silver,
We [Gm] can only stand and wonder, do [G] they know not what [Am] they do?
[Dm] As the Judas bus [G] goes by, [Gm] and they wave their [Dm] blood-stained wedges,
[Gm] In the hands that have [Dm] betrayed us, [G] do they know not [A] what they do?
[Gm] We act like B and [F] then we cry, let it be of [D] shame you die,
I dare you look [A] me in the [G] eye, as the Judas [Gm] bus goes by.
[Gm] As the [Dm] Judas bus goes [G] by, and the police stand shoulder to [Dm] shoulder,
[Gm] You could almost think they [Dm] were soldiers, do they know not what they [A] do?

[G] And if I'm gone near that sag hill main, across the path we'll stretch a lane,
To catch the throat [C] and break the [G] spine of a doughty black [Gm]-legged miner.
[Dm] As the Judas bus [G] goes by, [Gm] we turn to ask our [Dm] leaders,
Tell us who will clothe and [Am] feed us, for [G] we know not [A] what we'll do.
As the [Dm] Judas bus goes [G] by, we [Gm] are scorned by state [Dm] and nation,
And [Gm] we spit out our frustration, [G] but we will do what we [Am] must do.
[A] [Gm]
Black [G]-legged B and M we [Gm] cry, let it be of [G] shame you die,
[Gm] I dare you look [A] me in the eye, [G] as the [Gm] Judas bus goes by.
[C] Black-legged B [F] and M we [Gm] cry, let it be [G] of shame you die,

For that might not be far away, you dirty black [Gm]-legged miner.
Let it be of shame you die.
