[Verse]
D A G A D
Katharina Jacob, long before she took that name
Was organizing workers in Hamburg just the same
D A G A D
Organizing beneath the flag of deepest red
A new dawn of peace and freedom clearly shining in her head
D A G A D
Katharina Jacob first was sent to jail
When the trappings of democracy all began to fail
She was frequently arrested, in and out of custody
While her first husband was in hiding from the Nazis
D A G A D
Katharina Jacob was acquitted of a crime
D Em A G A
But the gestapo had the last word and they weren't finished with her this time
She was sent to Ravensbrück, a killing hunger at her side
She heard of the execution, how her second husband died
For Katharina Jacob the end was close at hand
Em G A
She was on a death march with a ragged, starving band
D A G A D
Marching through a forest, being led by the SS
What would happen hours later seemed impossible to guess
[Chorus]
When the sun came the next morning, it was the first of May
And they all sang the Internationale
And they all sang the Internationale
[Verse]
D A G A D
Katharina Jacob thought about her children
D Em A G A
And the friends and comrades taking care of them
D A G A D
Not knowing yet if any of them survived
D Em G A
Not knowing that soon she'd see her daughters both alive
D A G A D
Katharina Jacob watched the German soldiers fleeing
D Em A G A
Streaming from the east, that's what she was seeing
D A G A D
Allied bombers flew above them, she thought they all might die and then
D Em G A
Soon there was the silence of all the SS men
[Chorus]
When the sun came the next morning, it was the first of May
And they all sang the Internationale
And they all sang the Internationale
[Verse]
D A G A D
Katharina Jacob saw red flags flapping in the breeze
D Em A G A
Above the Russian tanks and she fell upon her knees
D A G A D
And so many different voices in so many different tongues
D Em G A
Sang the most beautiful song that could ever have been sung
D A G A D
In German, Lithuanian, in Polish and in Dutch
D Em A G A
A myriad of melodies as never had been such
D A G A D
In Russian and in Yiddish, Italian and French
D Em G A
Emerging from the forests beneath a trench
[Chorus]
When the sun came the next morning, it was the first of May
And they all sang the Internationale
When the sun came the next morning, it was the first of May
And they all sang the Internationale
And they all sang the Internationale
D A G A D
Völker, hört die Signale! Auf zum letzten Gefecht!
D Em A G D
Die Internationale erkämpft das Menschenrecht
D A G A D
Völker, hört die Signale! Auf zum letzten Gefecht!
D Em A G D
Die Internationale erkämpft das Menschenrecht
