Roy Orbison - There Won't Be Many Coming Home: chords

 C              F
Listen all you people
 F             G
Try and understand
 C            F
You may be a soldier
 F               G
Woman, child or man
           C                    F
But there won't be many coming home
           C                    F
No, there won't be many coming home
           C
Oh, there won't be many
       F           D
Maybe ten out of twenty
           C        G           C
But there won't be many coming home

        C
Now the old folks will remember
         F
On that dark and dismal day
           C
How their hearts were choked with pride
           G
As their children marched away
          C           F
Now the glory is all gone
  F             G
They are left alone
           C                    F
And there won't be many coming home
           C                    F
No, there won't be many coming home
           C
Oh, there won't be many
       F           D
Maybe five out of twenty
           C        G           C
But there won't be many coming home

            C
Look real closely at the soldier
       F
Coming at you through the haze
        C
He may be the younger brother
          G
Who ran away
       C              F
And before you kill another
 F                G
Listen to what I say
           C                    F
Oh, there won't be many coming home
           C                    F
Oh, there won't be many coming home
           C
Oh, there won't be many
       F         D
There may not be any
           C                    G
But there won't be many coming home
        C
If they all came back but one
         F                  D
He was still some mother's son
           C        G           C
And there won't be many coming home
