Rachels Bed

G   C   G   C

          G             Em         G
Well they say a part of Rachel died
    G                 Em           G
The day her true love took his life
G                    C             G
She stayed on at the old homestead
G                     Em           G
And sleeps alone in a cold, cold bed
Am                  D
She doesn't need no one

G                           Em            G
She drives into town in her old tray back
G                    Em         G
Down thirty miles of dusty track
G                        C            G
And still she wears that old black veil
G               Em          G
Lips so red and skin so pale
Am              D
I wonder if she knows

[Chorus]
        D            C      G
Rachel, I can't stop loving you
D                              G
Tell me is there nothin' I can do
   C                           G
Oh how I long to lay my lonely head
       C            D                 G   C
On the empty pillow there on Rachel's bed

G                    Em               G
In her silent eyes I search for a sign
G                         Em          G
That maybe she'll see the love in mine
G                   C                 G
When she goes by my head goes spinnin'
G                            Em                G
I wanna call her name but my nerves not willin'
Am             D
I wonder if it shows

[Chorus]
        D            C      G
Rachel, I can't stop loving you
D                              G
Tell me is there nothin' I can do
   C                           G
Oh how I long to lay my lonely head
       C            D                 G
On the empty pillow there on Rachel's bed

         G             Em         G
Well they say a part of Rachel died
    G                 Em           G
The day her true love took his life
G                    C             G
She stayed on at the old homestead
G                     Em           G
And sleeps alone in a cold, cold bed
Am                  D
She doesn't need no one.

[Chorus]
        D            C      G
Rachel, I can't stop loving you
D                              G
Tell me is there nothin' I can do
   C                           G
Oh how I long to lay my lonely head
       C            D                 G
On the empty pillow there on Rachel's bed
   C                           G
Oh how I long to lay my lonely head
       C            D                 G   C G C
On the empty pillow there on Rachel's bed
