Intro: G G/B (x20003 - you could call it Bm/5+) C D repeat four times

Em Dm

You know that everybody has a voice

C Am

And how they use it is their own free choice

Em Bm

But in your glory I will not rejoice

C A

If you choose the ways of war

C A

If you choose the ways of war

Em Dm

Ashes to ashes and dust to dust

C Am

My country tis of thee; in God we trust

Em Bm

But how much longer will he shelter us

C A

While we choose the ways of war

C A

While the winds of war rage on

Chorus:

G G/B C (Am) D

Let mine (oh let my small voice) be a voice for peace

G G/B C (Am) D

Oh, let mine (oh let my small voice) be a voice for peace

G G/B C A

Let mine (oh let my small voice) be a voice for peace

Em D

Let it start here with me

C D G C D G G C D G

Oh let mine be a voice for peace

The good book tells us thou shalt not kill

The truth came shining and it's shining still

But how much blood upon this earth must spill

Before we lay our weapons down

Let us lay our weapons down

Em D C D

Let it start here with me oh let mine be a voice

And in the face of the beast oh let mine be a voice

Until the breaths in me cease oh let mine be a voice for peace
