Well, I’m preachin’ peace and harmony

The blessings of tranquility

Yet I know when the time to strike is right

I’ll take you cross the river dear

The boulevards of cypress trees, the masquerades of birds and bees
G                 Em                        A9
The petals, pink and white, the wind has blown

Doctor, lawyer, Indian chief

My pulse is runnin’ through my palm–the sharp hills are rising from
G                  Em                       A9
The yellow fields with twisted oaks that groan

Won’t you meet  me       out in the moonlight alone?
