If I had a Hammer

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 be | tween my | brothers and | my sis | ters, |
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. |
