I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night, [D] alive as [Bm] you [A] and me.
Says I, but Joe, [E] you're ten [A] years dead.
[E] I never died, says he.
I never died, [A] says he.
In Salt Lake City, Joe, says I, [D] him standing by [A] my side.
They framed you [E] on a [A] murder charge.
[E] Says Joe, I never died.
Says Joe, I [A] never died.
The copper bosses, they shot you, Joe.
[D] They filled you [A] full of lead.
Takes more than guns [E] to kill a [A] man.
[E] Says Joe, and I ain't dead.
Says Joe, and I [A] ain't dead.
[E] [D] [A] [Bm]
[A] And standing there as big as life, [D] and smiling [A] with his eye,
says Joe, what they [E] forgot to [A] kill, [E] went on to organize.
[A] Went on [E] to
[A] organize.
In San Diego, up to Maine, [D] in every [A] mine and hill,
where working men [E] defend their [A] rights,
[E] it's there you'll find Joe Hill.
It's there you'll find [A] Joe Hill.
I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night, [D] alive as you [A] and me.
Says I, but Joe, [E] you're ten [A] years dead.
[E] I never died, says he.
I never [A] died, says he.
