  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
  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
  C And it's already gone too far
  C You said that if you go in hard
  G You won't get hurt
  G Jesus can you take the time
  D To throw a drowning man a line
  C Peace on Earth Am
  G Tell the ones who hear no sound
  Em Whose sons are living in the ground
  Bm Peace on Earth C
  G No who's or why's
  No one cries D like a mother cries
  C For peace on Earth Am
  G She never got to say goodbye
  Em To see the color in his eyes
  Bm Now he's in the dirt C
  G Peace on Earth C
  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 (D 5th fret) big idea
  G Jesus can you take the time
  D To throw a drowning man a line
  C Peace on Earth Am
  G To tell the ones who hear no sound
  Em Whose sons are living in the ground
  Bm Peace on Earth C
  G Jesus in the song you wrote
  D The words are sticking in my throat
  C Peace on Earth Am
  G Hear it every Christmas time
  Em But hope and history won't rhyme
  Bm So what's it worth C
  G This peace on Earth G
  C Peace on Earth C
  G Peace on Earth G
  C Peace on Earth C
