        G           C                    G
Was it Cesar Chavez? Maybe it was Dorothy Day
C                     G
Some say Dr. King or Ghandi
C                 D
Set them on their way
     C               G
No matter who your mentors are
      B7             Em
It’s pretty plain to see
             A
If you’ve been to jail for justice
            D
You’re in good company
        G        C       G
Have you been to jail for justice?
C                    G
I want to shake your hand
  G             Em
Sitting in and laying down
    A               D
Are ways to take a stand
        G       C           G
Have you sung a song for freedom
      B7                Em
Or marched that picket line?
         G       C        G
Have you been to jail for justice?
       D                G
Then you’re a friend of mine
       G
You law abiding citizens
C               G
Listen to this song
G                Em
Laws are made by people
       A           D
And people can be wrong
      C           G
Once unions were against the law
      B7         Em
But slavery was fine
A
Women were denied the vote
         D
While children worked the mine
       G      C     G
The more you study history
       B7        Em
The less you can deny it
     A
A rotten law stays on the books
    D
‘til folks with guts defy it!
        G        C         G
Have you been to jail for justice?
C                    G
I want to shake your hand
  G             Em
Sitting in and laying down
   A               D
Are ways to take a stand
         G     C           G
Have you sung a song for freedom
      B7               Em
Or marched that picket line?
         G       C        G
Have you been to jail for justice?
          D              G
Then you’re a friend of mine
         G
Well the law is supposed to serve us
    C           G
And so are the police
  C             G
When the system fails
         A                 D
It’s up to us to speak our piece
  C              G
It takes eternal vigilance
     B7        Em
For justice to prevail
            C.            G
So get courage from your convictions
             C     D      G
Let ‘em haul you off to jail!
        G         C           G
Have you been to jail for justice?
C                      G
I want to shake your hand
  G             Em
Sitting in and laying down
    A                D
Are ways to take a stand
       G        C         G
Have you sung a song for freedom
      B7                Em
Or marched that picket line?
         G       C        G
Have you been to jail for justice?
      D                 G
Then you’re a friend of mine
         G        C          G
Have you been to jail for justice?
         G      C          G
Will you go to jail for justice?
         G       C          G
Have you been to jail for justice?
        D                G
Then you’re a friend of mine.
