Judy Collins - Che



[Verse 1]
    Em
One morning in Bolivia
           Bm          C
The leader of the partisans
                  Em
And two of his companions
                                  C         D
Were forced to flee the mountains for their lives


[Verse 2]
        Em
Through green and dusty villages
           G               Em
They sped along the little roads
                                        G       C
The peasants smiled and shouted as they hurried by
Em
Jesus called out to everyone, "Don't think that we are leaving
          D                                          C       G
They only tried to frighten us with guns, we shall return"


[Chorus 1]
                   C     G
Continue with your work
                   C     Eb
Continue with your talk
                    G      Eb
You have it in your hands
                               Em
To own your lives, to own your lands


[Verse 3]
                                                   D      Em
The people smiled and shouted and they ran along a little while

Then stood and watched, their hands were restless and empty
    Bm        Em
The body of Jesus was in the jeep
                            D           C
That they blew up before it reached the plane
    Bm                  C
The priest was proud to bless him
    D                       G                   C
For what there was of him remaining in the afternoon


[Chorus 1]
                   C     G
Continue with your work
                   C     Eb
Continue with your talk
                    G      Eb
You have it in your hands
                               Em
To own your lives, to own your lands


[Chorus 2]
                        C         G
There is no one who can show you
                       C   Eb
The road you should be on
                             G         Eb
They only tell you, they can show you
                           Em
And then tomorrow they are gone


[Verse 4]
                                      D                  Em
The smell of oil and incense fill the room in this adobe hut
             D                        C
Where on the table lies the body of a man
    Em               Bm                           Em
His face is pale and young, his beard is dark and curled
                 D                Em      C       Em
Pennies hold his eyelids from the evening light


[Verse 5]
                                   Bm                         Em
People from the village, those who knew him, those who killed him

Stand inside the door, their hands are restless and empty
                                  D              C
They watch the priest make silent crosses in the air
                  Em                                     G
And pray to god inside their hearts for their own souls


[Chorus 1]
                   C     G
Continue with your work
                   C     Eb
Continue with your talk
                    G      Eb
You have it in your hands
                               Em
To own your lives, to own your lands


[Chorus 2]
                        C         G
There is no one who can show you
                       C   Eb
The road you should be on
                             G         Eb
They only tell you, they can show you
                           Em
And then tomorrow they are gone


[Chorus 1]
                   C     G
Continue with your work
                   C     Eb
Continue with your talk
                    G      Eb
You have it in your hands
                               Em
To own your lives, to own your lands


[Chorus 2]
                        C         G
There is no one who can show you
                       C   Eb
The road you should be on
                             G         Eb
They only tell you, they can show you
                           Em
And then tomorrow they are gone


[Chorus 1]
                   C     G
Continue with your work
                   C     Eb
Continue with your talk
                    G      Eb
You have it in your hands
                               Em
To own your lives, to own your lands


[Chorus 2]
                        C         G
There is no one who can show you
                       C   Eb
The road you should be on
                             G         Eb
They only tell you, they can show you
                           Em
And then tomorrow they are gone


[Chorus 1]
                   C     G
Continue with your work
                   C     Eb
Continue with your talk
                    G      Eb
You have it in your hands
                               Em
To own your lives, to own your lands
