Peace and Harmony                             © JAMES MOHR

A
THE RECORD PEOPLE LOVE ME WHEN I’M GOOD
                                                                                                         D
AND TURNING OUT THE SONGS THAT KEEP THE PEOPLE DANCING
Bm                                                           G                             A
THAT’S WHAT THEY WANT ME TO DO, BUT I DON’T CARE

A
THE SONGS I HEAR THESE DAYS ARE FILLED WITH EMPTINESS
                                                                                                    D
AND SUNG BY MODELS USING CLICHÉS, DRESSED UP FANCY
Bm                                                           G                             A
THAT’S WHAT THEY WANT ME TO DO, BUT I DON’T CARE


(CHORUS)
D                       E                      A                               D                                 Bm                 E                A
I’LL FIND AN OPEN DOOR, THAT’S WHAT I’M HOPING FOR, AND PEACE AND HARMONY

A
I WRITE THE SONGS AND REMINISCE ABOUT THE DAY WHEN
                                                                                                   D
GOOD SONGWRITERS WERE THE BACKBONE OF THE COUNTRY
Bm                                               G                                        A
THAT’S WHAT I AM GONNA DO, ‘CAUSE I’M RIGHT THERE

A
SO TAKE SOME TIME AND GO BEYOND THE VIDEO
                                                                                                     D
ALONG THE BOTTOM WHERE THERE’S CREDIT TO THE WRITER
Bm                                               G                                         A
THAT’S WHAT I AM GONNA DO, ‘CAUSE I’M DOWN THERE

(TO CHORUS)

A
I CAN SEE STAFF WRITERS AT COMPUTERS USING FORMULAS
                                                                                          D
AND MASS PRODUCING CRAP AND THAT’S TOP 40
Bm                                                           G                             A
THAT’S WHAT THEY WANT ME TO DO. BUT I DON’T CARE

A
SO THIS SONG’S DEDICATED TO COMPOSERS
                                                                                              D
WHO MAY NEVER HAVE THE CHANCE TO MAKE A RECORD
Bm                                     G                                   A
MY HAT GOES OFF TO YOU, ‘CAUSE I WAS THERE

(TO CHORUS)
