|Verse 1|
C A# DmWho holds the money, who holds the need
C A# DmWho holds the strings of misery or the purse of greed
A# DmAnd the gunmen reap while the gangsters sow
C A#And law is cheap when the smugglers go
|Chorus|
F A# F(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
F A# C(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
A# DmWhile I have a life to live
F CThen I have no life to give
Dm A# F(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
|Verse 2|
C A# DmIn sun-kissed rooms in city slums
C A# DmMinds are restless till the airmail comes
A# DmFrom the forest floor to the western mind
C A#Like a chat show topic on a party line
D# DmAnd the hardest love of all is to forgive
C A#As the world comes tumbling down
|Chorus|
F A# F(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
F A# C(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
A# DmWhile I have a life to live
F CThen I have no life to give
Dm A# F A# D# A#(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
F A# D# A#
D# A# F
|Bridge|
D# A# FLet all the rain come down on blind desire
D# A# FLike a thundercloud that holds a prairie fire
C A# DmI hear the blame and I see the cause
C A# DmA stronger voice and a stronger law
A# DmBut buyers buy and sellers sell
C A#Public consumption of a private hell
|Chorus|
F A# F(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
F A# C(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
A# DmWhile I have a life to live
F CThen I have no life to give
Dm A# F(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
A# F(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
A# F(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
A# DmWhile I have a life to live
F CThen I have no life to give
Dm A# F(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
Dm A# F(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
Dm A# F(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
