(Now the rythm changes, just hammer on the strings with your open ´hand while playing
chords Am7, F and G)
 
 
Am7                  Am7
 If you look, you'll see it with your own eyes.
F               G
 If you listen, you will hear her cries.
Am7           Am7
 If you care, you will stand and testify...
 
(now the rythm continues normally)
 
F              G
  and stop the rape of the world____.
Am7   Am7
 
F          G
  stop the rape of the world____.
 
 Am7    Am7
:       Mother of us all____
 F      G
        Mother of us all____: (play 3 times)
 
Am7 (let ring)
        Mother of us all____         Mother of us all____
 
 
PS: Instead of playing G you can use Gsus (sounds good)
 
That's all, isn't it a great Tracy Chapman Song? Peace ;-)
