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.
