Peace On Earth

U2

----------------------------------------------------------------


 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
 Am
 That there's gonna be
 G
 Peace on Earth
 G
 Where I grew up
 C
 There weren't many trees
 G
 Where there was we'd tear them down
 C
 And use them on our enemies
 G
 They say that what you mock
 C
 Will surely overtake you
 Am
 And you become a monster
 D
 So the monster will not break you
 Am
 And it's already gone too far
You said that if you go in hard
 G
 You won't get hurt
 G
 Jesus can you take the time
 Am
 To throw a drowning man a line
 EmC
 Peace on Earth
 G
 Tell the ones who hear no sound
 Am
 Whose sons are living in the ground
 EmC
 Peace on Earth
 G
 No who's or why's
 Am
 No one cries like a mother cries
 EmC
 For peace on Earth
 G
 She never got to say goodbye
 Am
 To see the color in his eyes
 EmC
 Now he's in the dirt
 G
 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
 D
 Any big idea
 G
 Jesus can you take the time
 Am
 To throw a drowning man a line
 EmC
 Peace on Earth
To tell the ones who hear no sound
Whose sons are living in the ground
Peace on Earth
Jesus in 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
This peace on Earth
G Peace on Earth
C Peace on Earth
G Peace on Earth

Lyrics from interference.com
I'm not really sure about the
"base-tones" in the chorus.
Peace on Earth
 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
 Sick of the pain
 Am
 And sick of hearing
 D
 Again and again
 Am
 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 ovetake you
 Am
 And you become a monster
 D
 Soon a monster will not break you
 Am
 And it's already gone too far
You said that if you go in hard
 G
You wont get hurt
 G
Jesus can you take the time
 Em/B
To throw a drowning man a line
 Bm/CC/A
Peace on Earth 
 G
Tell the ones who hear no sound
 Em/B
Whose sons are living in the ground
 Bm/F#C
Peace on earth 
 G
No who's or why's. No one cries
 Em/B
Like a mother cries
 Bm/CC/A
For peace on Earth 
 G
She never got to say goodbye
 Em/B
To see the colour in his eyes
 Bm/F#C
Now he's in the dirt 
 G
Peace on Earth
They're reading names out
Over the radio
All the folks the rest of us
Won't get to know
 Am
 Sean and Julia
 D
 Garett, Ann, and Breeda
 Am
 Their lives are bigger than
 G
 Any big idea
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
Jesus and 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
There's peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
Peace on Earth
