[Verse]
C G
In sixteen forty nine to St George's Hill
F C
a ragged band they called the Diggers came to show the peoples'
will
C G
they defied the Landlords, they defied the laws
F G C
they were the dispossessed, reclaiming what was theirs
C G
"we come in peace" they said, to dig and sow
F C
we come to work the lands in common and to make the wastegrounds
grow
C G
this earth divided, we will make whole
F G C
so it will be a common treasury for all
C G
the sin of property, we do disdain
F C
no man has any right to buy and sell the earth for private gain
C G
by theft and murder they took the land
F G C
now everywhere the walls spring up at their command
C G
they make the laws to chain us well
F C
the clergy dazzle us with heaven or they damn us into hell
C G
we will not worship the god they serve
F G C
the god of greed who feeds the rich while poor man starve
C G
we work, we eat together we need no swords
F C
we will not bow to the masters or pay rent to the lords
C G
we are free men, though we are poor
F G C
you diggers all stand up for glory stand up now
C G
from the men of property, the orders came
F C
they sent the hired men and troopers to wipe out the Diggers'
claim
C G
tear down their cottages, destroy their corn
F G C
they were dispersed, but still the vision lingers on
C G
you poor take courage, you rich take care
F C
this earth was made a common treasury for everyone to share
C G
all things in common, all people one
F G C
we come in peace, the orders came to cut them down
F G D
