"A Voice For Peace" - by Dan Fogelberg 1993 (from the CD "River Of Souls")

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

repeat chorus 

(Verse chords for guitar break)

repeat chorus but end with:

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

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

          Em            D            C         D         G   C    D  G
Until the breaths in me cease oh let mine be a voice for peace
