The war trumpets sounded, our rights are in danger, [C] Shall the brave [F] sons of Aaron [Bb] be deaf to the call?
[F] When freedom demands of both native and stranger, [C] Their aid [F] lest the greatest [Bb] of nations [F] should fall.
[C] Shall this banner so dear to the exiled and the gale, By traitors or rebels in [Dm] anarchy's [C] school,
[Dm]
[C]
[F] Betrayed in the dust, disgraced in the veil, [C] While our people [F] the sovereign [Bb] in [F] equity rule?

Don't know what their life's blood they'll guard, The rich treasure [C] see how they [F] respond to [Bb] the whole shoulder arms.
[F] Though impaired by those sacred ties, With love beyond measure, [C] Of bosom, [F] friends, children, [Bb]
beauty, [F] sweet charms.

behind [C] in a quip for [Dm] the battle, [C] Between freedom [Dm] and rape, I'd [C] like true [Dm] sons of
