Peacenick

G7 Who's that chubby old hippy stuck in your chimney Bmadd11 Sliding down in your fireplace, and now you see him knee-high Cadd9 He's dropping out of the sky, dropping in just to lay it on you on a G7 Christmas mornin' G7 Got a pipe in one hand and a peace sign in the other Bmadd11 Got a sack on his back full of toys, love and brotherhood Cadd9 A Volkswagen bus pulled by eight tiny reindeer, a twinkle in his eye G7 and granola in his grin Bm F Am Eb G7 Peace.............Nick G7 To the children of the world he says Love is the answer Bmadd11 To the grown-ups, says are you gonna give peace a chance or what? Cadd9 In a trance on a transcontinental transcendental trip, can you dig what G7 a long strange trip it's been? Bm F Am Eb G7 Peace.............Nick is flyin' F Now he shouting, "On Janis! On Jimi! On Jerryyyeah!" C And he shakes when he laughs like a bowl full of Cherry Garcia F# E F#m Singing, "Ahhhhhhhhhhh...vay Maria" G7 Some would tell him his message is silly and saccharine Bmadd11 Some would call him a walking North Pole anachronism Cadd9 And yeah, he's far out, but he's never far out of style - he'll turn G7 you on, but he'll never turn you in Bm F Am Eb G7 Peace.............Nick is flyin' Cadd9 Merry Christmas to all, and to all peace tonight Cadd9 And I heard his exclaim as he rode... G7 Outta sight! G7 Outta sight! G7 Outta sight ...
