Paul McCartney – People Want Peace (Guitar)

C
Ladies and gentlemen

Am                       Em                         G
Standing before you with something important to say

C                       Em
With some trepidation I crave your attention but

Am                G                  C
I'm not gonna let anything get in my way

C                      Em
The message is simple, it's straight from my heart

Am                     G
And I know that you've heard it before

C                              Em
But what does it matter, we're in it together

    Am                     G
And I'm not quitting while people are crying for more

C           G/C
People want peace

C           F
People want peace

C         G/C               F
A simple release from their suffering

F           C

Cm                    F/C
Nothing in life is as sad as the lonely, so

Cm            F/C
Searching for peace

Cm           F/C
Only to find disappointment is waiting

Dm/G                       G
Behind every door that we open

Dm/G            G
Every catch, we release

C                         Am
A-brothers and sisters, I beg you to listen

  Em                     G
I know that it isn't too late

   C                      Am
For we as the people, the voices of freedom

    Em                  G7                        C
And we're all perfectly clear that we don't wanna wait

C           G/C
People want peace
