[Intro]
 F Dm7 F Bb F


[Verse 1]
F
Gather round Ma's knee
    Bb              F
To read this week's letter
F
I wonder what will be
   Bb               F    Dm7  F Bb
We hope the news is better


[Verse 2]
F                      Bb   F
The men here die like flies Ma
F                       Bb   F
I bandage their blinded eyes Ma
         C                         
And the kids with their aching feet
                      Bb  F
 ain't got nothing to eat Ma


[Verse 3]
F                   Bb   F
The hospital has no door Dad
F                   Bb    F
Soldiers lie on the floor Dad
     C
Oh I did my best
Continues after the ad
Remove ads
                     Bb   F
But I can't take any more Dad


[Chorus]
F
Rachel's coming home
 C
Rachel's coming home
       Bb                          
Oh and I don't think she'll go away
   F
 again
F
Rachel's seen the light
    C
The world's too big to fight
    Bb                          
And I don't think she'll go away 
 F
again
C/E   Dm      C        Bb
My    dear    fam-     ily


[Verse 3]
F               Bb   F
The world and people in it
F
go the way they will
            C
But there's not a man,

Black or white,
        Bb           F
Who can ever hope to stop them


[Chorus]
F
Rachel's coming home
 C
Rachel's coming home
       Bb                          
Oh and I don't think she'll go away
   F
 again
F
Rachel's seen the light
    C
The world's too big to fight
    Bb                          
And I don't think she'll go away 
 F
again
C/E   Dm      C        Bb
My    dear    fam-     ily

F
Rachel's seen the light
    C
The world's too big to fight

And I don't think she'll go away 
 F
again
C/E   Dm      C        Bb
My    dear    fam-     ily
