1. If I had a hammer, I’d hammer in the morning
                            D#dim          A7
   I’d hammer in the evening all over this land
                  D       G   A7           Bm
   I’d hammer out danger, I’d hammer out a warning
                      D        G      D
   I’d hammer out the love between my brothers and my 
        A7
      sisters
   D-G-D-A7             D
   All     over this land

2. 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 out danger, I’d ring out a warning
   I’d ring out the love between my brothers and my sisters
   All over this land

3. 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 out danger, I’d sing out a warning
   I’d sing out the love between my brothers and my sisters
   All over this land

4. Well 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 the hammer of justice, it’s the bell of freedom
   It’s the song about the love between my brothers and my sisters
   All over this land
