Peace On Earth
--------------
G C
Heaven on Earth, we need it now
G C
I\'m sick of all of this hanging around
G C
Sick of sorrow, sick of the pain
Am D
I\'m sick of hearing again and again
Am G
That there\'s gonna be peace on Earth
G C
Where I grew up there weren\'t many trees
G
Where there was we\'d tear them down
C
And use them on our enemies
G
They say that what you mock
C
Will surely overtake you
Am
And you become a monster
D
So the monster will not break you
Am
And it\'s already gone too far
Who said that if you go in hard
G
You won\'t get hurt?
G
Jesus can you take the time
Am
To throw a drowning man a line
C Am
Peace on Earth
G
Tell the ones who hear no sound
Em
Whose sons are living in the ground
Hm C
Peace on Earth
G
No whos or whys
Hm
No one cries like a mother cries
C
For peace on Earth
G
She never got to say goodbye
Em
To see the color in his eyes
Hm C
Now he\'s in the dirt
G
Peace on Earth
G C
They\'re reading names out over the radio
G C
All the folks the rest of us won\'t get to know
Am D
Sean and Julia, Gareth and Ann and Breda
Am G D
Their lives are bigger than any big idea
G
Jesus can you take the time
Am
To throw a drowning man a line
C
Peace on Earth
G
To tell the ones who hear no sound
Em
Whose sons are living in the ground
Hm
Peace on Earth
G
Jesus sing a song you wrote
Am
The words are sticking in my throat
C
Peace on Earth
G
Hear it every Christmas time
Em
But hope and history won\'t rhyme
Hm C
So what\'s it worth
G Am
This peace on Earth
C Am
Peace on Earth
G Am
Peace on Earth
C Am
Peace on Earth
