If I had a Hammer

Pete Seeger

G Em C D G Em C
If I had a hammer, I’d hammer in the morning,
D G Em C D
I’d hammer in the evening all over this land.
G Em
I’d hammer out danger, I’d hammer out a warning,
C G C G C
I’d hammer out love between my brothers and my sisters,
G D G, Em, C
ah all over this land.
 
If I had a bell, I’d ring it in the morning, 
I’d ring it in the evening all over this land. 
I’d ring it out danger, I’d ring it out a warning, 
I’d ring it out love between my brothers and my sisters, 
ah all over this land. 
 
If I had a song, I’d sing it in the morning, 
I’d sing it in the evening all over this land. 
I’d sing it out danger, I’d sing it out a warning, 
I’d sing it out love between my brothers and my sisters, 
ah all over this land. 
 
Now I‘ve got a hammer, and I’ve got a bell, 
and I’ve got a song to sing all over this land. 
It’s a hammer of justice, it’s a bell of freedom, 
it’s a song about love between my brothers and my sisters, 
all over this land.
