[Intro] G C x4 [Verse 1]
          G       C             G     C
As I walk through   this wicked world

              Em           A                 D    C
Searchin' for light in the darkness of insanity

        G    C             G     C
I ask myself   is all hope lost

              Em       A              D     C
Is there only pain and hatred and misery
[Chorus 1]
         G                D/F#
And each time I feel like this inside

        G7/F              C
There's one thing I wanna know

G                     D                   Em        A
What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding, oh

G                     D                   Em        D
What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding
[Instrumental] G C x4 [Verse 2]
                G  C                 G     C
And as I walked on   though troubled times

               Em      A           D     C
My spirit gets  so downhearted sometimes

                 G      C                 G       C
So where are the strong   and who are the trusted

                 Em  A  D              C
And where is the   harmony, sweet harmony
[Chorus 2]
            G              D/F#
'Cause each time I feel it slippin' away

G7/F                C
Just makes me wanna cry

G                     D                   Em        A
What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding, oh

G                     D                       Em       D
What's so funny 'bout peace and love and understanding

[Verse 3]

                 G      C                 G       C
So where are the strong   and who are the trusted

                 Em  A  D              C
And where is the   harmony, sweet harmony
[Chorus]

Just make me wanna cry

G                     D                   Em        A
What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding, oh

G                     D                   Em        A
What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding, oh

G                     D                       Em
What's so funny 'bout peace and love and understanding
