Verse 1:
              Bsus4 A9              C#m
Who holds the money
who holds the need
              Bsus4          A9                 C#m
Who holds the strings of misery or the purse of greed
               A9                       C#m
And the gunmen reap while the gangsters sow
           Bsus4                    Esus2
And law is cheap when the smugglers go


   Chorus:
         E              A            E
(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
         E              A            B
(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
        A              C#m
While I have a life to live
       E               Bsus4
Then I have no life to give
         C#m            A             E
(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time


   Verse 2:
              Bsus4 A9        C#m
In sun-kissed rooms
In city slums
          Bsus4    A9                 C#m
Minds are restless   till the airmail come
                A9                   C#m
From the forest floor to the western mind
                 Bsus4            A
Like a chat show topic on a party line
        Dsus2                     C#m
And the hardest love of all is to forgive
       Bsus4                A
As the world comes tumbling down


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

    Dsus2             A             E
Let all the rain come down on blind desire
       Dsus2             A               E
Like a thundercloud that holds a prairie fire (a prairie fire)

   Verse 3:
           Bsus4 A9              C#m
I hear the blame   and I see the cause
           Bsus4  A9               C#m
A stronger voice    and a stronger law
           A   B            C#m
But buyers buy  and sellers sell
           Bsus4                A
Public consumption of a private hell


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


   Chorus:
         E              A            E
(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
