Rachels Coming Home(Cavaco chords)

	        G 
Gather round on ma's knee, 
   C                G 
to read this week's letter. 
G 
I wonder what will be, 
   C                G 
we hope the news is better. 


G                     C     G 
The men here die like flies ma, 
G                        C    G 
I bandaged their blinded eyes ma, 
        D 
And the kids with their aching feet 
                     G 
Ain't got nothing to eat ma. 


G                   C    G 
The hospital has no door dad, 
G                   C     G 
Soldiers lie on the floor dead, 
     D 
Oh I did my best, 
                    G 
but I can't take anymore dad 


G 
Rachel's coming home 
D 
Rachel's coming home 
      C                              G 
Oh and I don't think she'll go away again 
G 
Rachel's seen the light 
    D 
The world's too big to fight 
   C                              G 
and I don't think she'll go away again 


D  C    D   C 
My dear family 


G 
The world and people in it 
G 
Go the way they will 
            D 
But there's not a man black or white 
                      G 
Who can never hope to stop them
