Judy Collins - Che
[Verse 1]
One Emmorning in Bolivia
The leader Bmof the partiCsans
And two of his comEmpanions
Were forced to flee the mountains Cfor their Dlives
[Verse 2]
Through Emgreen and dusty villages
They sped aGlong the little Emroads
The peasants smiled and shouted as they Ghurried Cby
EmJesus called out to everyone, "Don't think that we are leaving
They only Dtried to frighten us with guns, we shall reCturn" G
[Chorus 1]
Continue with your Cwork G
Continue with your Ctalk Eb
You have it in your Ghands Eb
To own your lives, to own your Emlands
[Verse 3]
The people smiled and shouted and they ran along a Dlittle Emwhile
Then stood and watched, their hands were restless and empty
The Bmbody of JeEmsus was in the jeep
That they blew up before it Dreached the Cplane
The Bmpriest was proud to Cbless him
For Dwhat there was of him reGmaining in the afterCnoon
[Chorus 1]
Continue with your Cwork G
Continue with your Ctalk Eb
You have it in your Ghands Eb
To own your lives, to own your Emlands
[Chorus 2]
There is no one who can Cshow you G
The road you should be Con Eb
They only tell you, they can Gshow you Eb
And then tomorrow they are Emgone
[Verse 4]
The smell of oil and incense fill the Droom in this adobe Emhut
Where on the Dtable lies the body of a Cman
His Emface is pale and Bmyoung, his beard is dark and Emcurled
Pennies hold his Deyelids from the Emevening Clight Em
[Verse 5]
People from the village, those who Bmknew him, those who killed Emhim
Stand inside the door, their hands are restless and empty
They watch the priest make silent Dcrosses in the Cair
And pray to god inEmside their hearts for their own souls G
[Chorus 1]
Continue with your Cwork G
Continue with your Ctalk Eb
You have it in your Ghands Eb
To own your lives, to own your Emlands
[Chorus 2]
There is no one who can Cshow you G
The road you should be Con Eb
They only tell you, they can Gshow you Eb
And then tomorrow they are Emgone
[Chorus 1]
Continue with your Cwork G
Continue with your Ctalk Eb
You have it in your Ghands Eb
To own your lives, to own your Emlands
[Chorus 2]
There is no one who can Cshow you G
The road you should be Con Eb
They only tell you, they can Gshow you Eb
And then tomorrow they are Emgone
[Chorus 1]
Continue with your Cwork G
Continue with your Ctalk Eb
You have it in your Ghands Eb
To own your lives, to own your Emlands
[Chorus 2]
There is no one who can Cshow you G
The road you should be Con Eb
They only tell you, they can Gshow you Eb
And then tomorrow they are Emgone
[Chorus 1]
Continue with your Cwork G
Continue with your Ctalk Eb
You have it in your Ghands Eb
To own your lives, to own your Emlands
