[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Freemont told them
when [A]the war had first be[D]gun
How to save the Union,
[G]the way it should be won[A]
But [G]old Kentucky swore [F#m]so hard,
[Em]and A .B. had his fear[D]s
Every hope was a loss
for the [A]Colored Volun[D]teer
McClellan went to Richmond,
[A]200 ,000 [D]brave
He said, keep back the niggers,
[G]the Union I will sav[A]e Lit[G]tle Mac,
he [F#m]had his way,
the [Em]Union's still in [D]tears
Now they call for the help
[A]of the Colored Volun[D]teer
Oh, give us a flag,
oh, [A]free without a slave
[D]We'll fight to defend it,
as [G]our fathers did so [A]brave
[G]Galant [F#m]Compagnie,
[Em]we'll make those rebels [D]dance
We'll stand by the Union,
if we [A]only get our [D]chance
Oh, Jeff says he will hang us
if we [A]dare to meet him [D]on
A very big thing, [G]but we were not [A]alone
But [G]first he'll have to [F#m]catch us
be[Em]fore his way is [D]clear
That is what's the matter
with [A]a colored v[D]olunteer
So rally boys rally,
let [A]us never mind the [D]past
[G]We [D]had a hard road to travel,
but our [G]days come [A]at last
[G]God is for the [F#m]right,
and [Em]we have no need to f[D]ear
The Union will be saved
by [A]the Colored Volun[D]teer
Oh give us a flag,
home [A]free without a [D]slave
And we'll fight to defend it,
that [G]the fathers did [A]so brave
The [G]gallant Company [F#m]A,
we'll [Em]make those rebels [D]dance
And we'll stand by the Union,
if [G]we only [A]had our [D]chance
We'll stand by the [F#m]union
[G]if we only [A]had our chance
[D]
