Verse 1:
       Bsus4Bsus4 A9A9       C# minorC#m
Who holds the money
who holds the need
       Bsus4Bsus4     A9A9         C# minorC#m
Who holds the strings of misery or the purse of greed
        A9A9            C# minorC#m
And the gunmen reap while the gangsters sow
      Bsus4Bsus4          Esus2Esus2
And law is cheap when the smugglers go


  Chorus:
     E MajorE       A augmentedA      E MajorE
(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
     E MajorE       A augmentedA      BB
(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
    A augmentedA       C# minorC#m
While I have a life to live
    E MajorE        Bsus4Bsus4
Then I have no life to give
     C# minorC#m      A augmentedA       E MajorE
(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time


  Verse 2:
       Bsus4Bsus4 A9A9    C# minorC#m
In sun-kissed rooms
In city slums
     Bsus4Bsus4  A9A9         C# minorC#m
Minds are restless  till the airmail come
        A9A9          C# minorC#m
From the forest floor to the western mind
         Bsus4Bsus4      A augmentedA
Like a chat show topic on a party line
    Dsus2Dsus2           C# minorC#m
And the hardest love of all is to forgive
    Bsus4Bsus4        A augmentedA
As the world comes tumbling down

  Chorus:
     E MajorE       A augmentedA      E MajorE
(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
     E MajorE       A augmentedA      BB
(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
    A augmentedA       C# minorC#m
While I have a life to live
    E MajorE        BB
Then I have no life to give
     C# minorC#m      A augmentedA      E MajorE
(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time

I hear the blame  and I see the cause
      Bsus4Bsus4 A9A9        C# minorC#m
A augmentedA stronger voice  and a stronger law

But buyers buy and sellers sell

Public consumption of a private hell
