[G]
There's a name for war and killing.
There's a name for giving in when you know another answer.
For me, the name is sin.
But there's still time to turn around and make all hatred cease and give another name to living.
[N] We could call it peace.
And
[Abm]
peace would be the road we walk each step along the way.
Peace would be the way we work.
And peace the way we play.
[Dm] And in all we see that's different and [Ab] all the things we know, peace would [E] be the way we look.
Peace the way we grow.
There's a name for separation.
There's a name for first and [G] last when it's all of us or nothing.
For me, the name is past.
But there's still [D] time to turn around, [G] make all hatred cease, and give a name to all the future.
We could call it peace.
And if peace is what we pray for, and if peace is what we give, then peace will be the way we are.
And peace the way we live.
For there still is time [D] to turn around and make all hatred cease and give another [G] name to living.
We could call it peace.
Peace.
[D]
Peace.
Last night I had the strangest dream [G] I'd never dreamed [D] before.
[F] [Em] I dreamed [A] the world had [Bm] all agreed to [G] put [A] an end [D] to war.
I [G] dreamed I saw [D] a mighty room [A] and the room was filled [D] with men.
[G] And the paper they [D] were signing [Bm]
said [Em] they'd [A] never fight [D] again.
And when the paper was all signed [G] and a million copies [D] made,
[F] [Em] they all [A] joined hands [D] and bowed [Bm] their heads.
[Em] Grateful [A]
prayers were [D] prayed.
And [G] the people in the [D] streets below [A] were dancing round and [D] round.
[G] And guns and swords [D] and [Bm] uniform [Em] were [A] scattered on the [D] ground.
Sing it with me.
Last night I had the strangest dream [G] I'd never dreamed [D] before.
[Em] I dreamed [A] the world [D] had all [Bm] agreed [Em] to put [A] an end to [D] war.
Sing it again.
