Chords for Peace Like a River - Paul Simon - Live

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Why would [E] they tell me that I was hard-wired [D] when I'm not?
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ This is an old song, _ early 70s.
_ _ Seems to have a little kind of resonance now
with what's going on in Egypt. _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Oh, _ _ _ _ _ [D] peace like a [G] river ran through the [F] city. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bb] Long past the midnight [F] curfew, we sat [Bb] starry-eyed.
_ [G] _ _ _
Whoa, _ we were [D] satisfied. _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ [D] Oh, _ _ _ _ _ _ misinformation _
_ [G] followed us like [F] a plague.
_ _ _ _ [Bb] Nobody knew [F] from time to time that [Bb] the planet would [A] change.
_ [G] _ _ Whoa, _ _
_ [C] _ _ if [F] the planet would change.
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ You can beat us with [F] wires.
_ _ You can beat us with chains.
_ _ _ [C] _ You can learn not to rule, but you
know [D] you cannot run the history train.
_ _ [Bb] _ I see it in glorious days.
Ooh, [F] ooh, _ ooh, _ _ _ [C] ooh, _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] ooh, ooh, _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [D] _

_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _
_ [D] ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, _ _ _ ooh, ooh.
Far and _ [G] _ up from out [F] of my [Dm] dreams.
_ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [Bb] Nowhere to go but [F] back to sleep, but I am [Bb] reconciled.
[A] _ _ [G] _
