This little song was penned by Woody Guthrie many years ago.
Arlo Guthrie put it to music a few years ago. Follow the

My peace my peace
4 4 4d 4d
Is all I've got
4 5 4d 4
That I can give to you
5 5d 6d 6 4d 5
My peace is all
5d 5d 6d 6
I've e-ver had
5d 5d 4d 4
It's all I e-ver knew
5 6d 6 4d 4 4d
I give my peace
4 4 4d 4d
To green and black
4 5d 5 4
to red and white and blue
5 5d 6d 6 4d 5
my peace my peace
5d 5d 6d 6
Is all I've got
5d 5 4d 4
That I can give to you
4 4d 5d 5 4d 4
My peace, my peace is all I've got
It's all I've ever known
My peace is worth a thousand times more
Than anything I own
I pass my peace around and around
'cross hands of every hue
My peace my peace is all I've got
That I can give to you.
