Peace In The Valley

[C]  (x32013) [G] (320013)  [D]   [C]  (x32013)    Intro/Verse

[C]I think these walls have a mes[G]sage or have chan[D]ged
Which it is I can't deci[C]de.
[C]So I leave with the[G] writer that remains[D]
And let him tell me what his better days were lik[C]e.

And I sit with the memory of kings
With only words to criticize
As if I finally found the antidote for pain
Without knowing what that's really like.

[C]And our actor ends his love son[D]g
A[G]nd all these lovers sit and st[C]are.
[C]If I don't find peace in the vall[G]e
It's cause there wasn't any ther[D]e.   [C]       [B]          [Am]                [B]                   [C]

I will move somewhere the ocean's never seen.
Somewhere weeds just make their place
Where my best friend's exist only on screen
Where my love all fits and frays

But I want fire tumbling out into the night
I want you to know why you hold me close
Pull the quarter from my ear, or say you tried
I need magic or the holy ghost.

And as I drive on through these canyons
I'm still feeling like a crook
If I don't find peace in the valley
I've got no place else to look.
