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?
