      [Intro]

| G   | G   | C   | C   | x2

| F   | C   | G   | G   | x2


[Verse]
G
 Heaven on Earth
C
  We need it now
G
  I'm sick of all of this
C
  Hanging around
G
  Sick of sorrow
C
  I'm sick of the pain
Am
  I'm sick of hearing
D
  Again and again


[Chorus]
              C
That there's gonna be
 G
Peace on Earth


[Verse]
G
  Where I grew up
C
  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


[Pre-Chorus]
    C
And it's already gone too far
     C
You said that if you go in hard
     G
You won't get hurt


[Chorus]
 G
Jesus can you take the time
      D
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
 Bm            C
Peace on Earth
     G
No who's or why's
              D
No one cries like a mother cries
     C             Am
For peace on Earth
     G
She never got to say goodbye
    Em
To see the color in his eyes
         Bm          C
Now he's in the dirt
G              C
Peace on Earth


[Verse]
G
  They're reading names out
C
  Over the radio
G
  All the folks the rest of us
C
  Won't get to know


[Pre-Chorus]
Am
  Sean and Julia
D
  Gareth, Anne, and Breeda
Am
  Their lives are bigger than
G       D
  Any big idea


[Chorus]
 G
Jesus can you take the time
      D
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
 Bm            C
Peace on Earth
 G
Jesus in the song you wrote
     D
The words are sticking in my throat
 C             Am
Peace on Earth
 G
Hear it every Christmas time
     Em
But hope and history won't rhyme
    Bm             C
So what's it worth
      G
This peace on Earth
 C
Peace on Earth
 G
Peace on Earth
 C             G
Peace on Earth
