Peaceful    (video)

 

    G ~ ~       +  F - C - Am - D

 

                  G                                                 F

1. In the morning sun when no one will be drinking any more wine,

           Em                                              C          G             D

    I’ll wake the sun up by givin‘ him a fresh air full of the wind cup.

                 G                                                      - F 

    And I won’t be found in the shadows hiding      sorrow,

                    Em

    and I can wait for fate to bring around to me,

             C       G         D              G

    any part of my tomorrow, tomorrow.

 

                   F    - C        Am          D

’Cause it’s, oh,        so peaceful here,

             Bm                    Em

there’ s no one bendin‘ over my shoulder,

C                              D               F    - C        Am          D      - D7

    nobody breathing in my ear, oh,        so peaceful here.

 

               G

2. In the evening shadows are calling me,

                    F

    and the dew settles in my mind,

               Em

    and I think of friends in the yesterday,

                       C              G               D

    when my plans were giggled in rhyme.

    G                                                         F

    I had a son while on the run, and his love brought a tear to my eye,

             Em

    and maybe some day he’ll grow up and say :

             C        G             D - G

    We had a pretty nice ti.....me, oh, my.

 

+  CHORUS      +  G ~ ~ ….
