A wobblie, immigrant worker has no place among the living.

CHORUS
D#5 C#5
&ldquo My body if I could choose to ashes it reduce,
D#5 C#5
And let the breezes blow my dust to where some flowers grow.

G#5 A#5
Every wheel in the creation,
C5 C#5
Every mine and every mill.
G#5 A#5
Fleets and armies of all nations
C5 C#5 - one strum
