Far a[Am] way across the [E] ocean,

Far beyond [Am] the seas eastern [E] rim,

[Am] Lives a man who is father of the Indo-Chinese people,

And his name it [F] is Ho Chi Minh.

Ho, [C] Ho, Ho Chi [Am] Minh.

From Viet[Am] Bac to the SaiGon [E] Delta

From the moun[Am] tains and plains be[E] low

[Am] Young and old workers, peasants and the toiling tenant farmers

Fight for freedom [F] with Uncle Ho.

Ho, [C] Ho, Ho Chi [Am] Minh.

Ho Chi [Am] Minh was a deep sea [E] sailor

He served his [Am] time out on the seven [E] seas

[Am] Work and hardship were part of his early education

Exploitation [F] his AB[Am] C.

Ho, [C] Ho, Ho Chi [Am] Minh.

Ho Chi [Am] Minh came home from [E] sailing

And he looked [Am] out on his native [E] land

[Am] Saw the want and the hunger of the Indo-Chinese people

Foreign soldiers [F] on every [Am] hand.

Ho, [C] Ho, Ho Chi [Am] Minh.

Ho Chi [Am] Minh went to the [E] mountains

And he trained [Am] a determined [E] band

[Am] Heroes all, sworn to liberate the Indo-Chinese people

Drive invaders [F] from the [Am] land.

Fourteen [Am] men became a [E] hundred

A hundred [Am] thousand and Ho Chi [E] Minh

Ho, [C] Ho, Ho Chi [Am] Minh.

Every [Am] soldier is a [E] farmer

Comes the eve[Am] ning and he grabs his [E] hoe

[Am] Comes the morning he swings his rifle on his shoulder

This the [F] army of Uncle [Am] Ho.

Ho, [C] Ho, Ho Chi [Am] Minh.

From the [Am] mountains and the [E] jungles

From the [Am] ricelands and the [E] Plain of Reeds

[Am] March the men and the women of the Indo-Chinese Army

Planting free[F] dom with victory [Am] seeds.

Ho, [C] Ho, Ho Chi [Am] Minh.
