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