U2 - Peace On Earth: chords

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

              C
That there's gonna be
 G
Peace on Earth

Where I grew up
There weren't many trees
Where there was we'd tear them down
And use them on our enemies
They say that what you mock
Will surely overtake you
And you become a monster
So the monster will not break you

    C
And it's already gone too far
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

G
They're reading names out
C
Over the radio
G
All the folks the rest of us
C
Won't get to know
Am
Sean and Julia
D
Gareth, Anne, and Breeda
Am
Their lives are bigger than
G
Any big idea

Chorus:
Jesus can you take the time
To throw a drowning man a line
Peace on Earth
To tell the ones who hear no sound
Whose sons are living in the ground
Peace on Earth
Jesusin the song you wrote
The words are sticking in my throat
Peace on Earth
Hear it every Christmas time
But hope and history won't rhyme
So what's it worth?
This peace on Earth
 C
Peace on Earth
 G
Peace on Earth
 C            G
Peace on Earth
