Roy Orbison - There Won't Be Many Coming Home
[Verse 1]
C              F                    G
Listen all you people, try and understand
C            F                        G
You may be a soldier, woman, child or man
[Chorus]
          C                    F
But there won't be many comin' home
          C                    F
No, there won't be many comin' home
          C        C7          F          D7
Oh, there won't be many, maybe ten out of twenty
          C        G           C
But there won't be many comin' home
[Verse 2]
        C                               F
Now the old folks will remember on that dark and dismal day
          C                                      G
How their hearts were choked with pride as their children marched away
        C            F                    G
Now the glory is all gone, they are left alone
[Chorus]
          C                    F
And there won't be many comin' home
          C                    F
No, there won't be many comin' home
          C        C7           F          D7
Oh, there won't be many, maybe five out of twenty
          C        G           C
But there won't be many comin' home
[Verse 3]
          C                             F
Look real closely at the soldier coming at you through the haze
       C                               G
He may be the younger brother who ran away
      C              F                        G
And before you kill another, listen to what I say
[Chorus]
          C                    F
Oh, there won't be many comin' home
          C                    F
Oh, there won't be many comin' home
          C        C7          F          D7
Oh, there won't be many, there may not be any
          C                    G
But there won't be many comin' home
        C                 C7          F                   D7
If they all came back but one, it was still some mother's son
          C        G           C
And there won't be many comin' home
          C                    F
Oh, there won't be many comin' home
          C                    F
Oh, there won't be many comin' home
          C                    F
Oh, there won't be many comin' home
