[Verse 1]
D G
Yes, we'll rally round the flag, boys, we'll rally once again,
D A
Shouting the battle cry of freedom,
D G
We will rally from the hillside, we'll gather from the plain,
D A D
Shouting the battle cry of freedom!
[Chorus]
D
The Union forever! Hurrah, boys, hurrah!
A
Down with the traitor, up with the star;
D G
While we rally round the flag, boys, rally once again,
D A D
Shouting the battle cry of freedom!

We are springing to the call of our brothers gone before,
D A
Shouting the battle cry of freedom!

And we'll fill our vacant ranks with a million free men more,
D A D
Shouting the battle cry of freedom!
[Chorus]
D
The Union forever! Hurrah, boys, hurrah!

Down with the traitor, up with the star;

While we rally round the flag, boys, rally once again,
D A D
Shouting the battle cry of freedom!
[Verse 3]
D G
We will welcome to our number the loyal, true and brave,
D A
Shouting the battle cry of freedom!

And although they may be poor, not a man shall be a slave,
D A D
Shouting the battle cry of freedom!
[Chorus]
D
The Union forever! Hurrah, boys, hurrah!

Down with the traitor, up with the star;

While we rally round the flag, boys, rally once again,
D A D
Shouting the battle cry of freedom!
[Verse 4]
D G
So we're springing to the call from the East and from the West,
D A
Shouting the battle cry of freedom!
D G
And we'll prove a crew for the land we love the best,
D A D
Shouting the battle cry of freedom!
[Chorus]
D
The Union forever! Hurrah, boys, hurrah!
A
Down with the traitor, up with the star;
D G
While we rally round the flag, boys, rally once again,
D A D
Shouting the battle cry of freedom!
[Chorus]
D
The Union forever! Hurrah, boys, hurrah!
A
Down with the traitor, up with the star;
