-3 -3* 4 -5 -5 -5
Lift ev-‘ry voice and sing
-5 -5* -6 -5 5 -3*
Till earth and hea-ven ring
-3* 5 -5 -5* -5 -3* 5 -3*-3* -3
Ring with the har-mo-nies of lib-er-ty;
-3 -3* 4 -5 -5 7
Let our re-joic-ing rise,
7 -6 -5 -5* -5 -3*
High as the list-‘ning skies,
-3* 5 5* -5 -5 5 -3* 5 -3* -3*
let it re-sound loud as the roll-ing sea
-3* -2 3 3 -2 -1 3
Sing a song full of the faith
-2 -1 3 -2 -1 -2 -2
that the dark past has taught us,
-3* -2 -2* -2* -2 -1* -2*
Sing a song full of the hope
-2 -1* -2* -2 -1* -1 -5 -5*…
that the pres-ent has brought us;
-3 -3* 4 -5 -5 7
Fac-ing the ris-ing sun
7 -6 -5 -5* -55-3*
of our new day be-gun,
-3* 4 4* -5 -5 5 -3* 5 -3*-3*…
Let us march on till vic-tor-y is won.
