          [riff A]
As I walk through
          [riff A]
this wicked world
              Em    A                  D         C
Searching for light in the darkness of insanity
          [riff A]
I ask myself
          [riff A]
"Is all hope lost?"
              Em       A           D         C
Is there only pain and hatred, and misery?
            G                D             Em                C
‘Cause each time I feel like this inside / one thing I wanna know;
G                    D                       Em      A
Whats so funny 'bout peace, love, and understanding? Oh
G                    D                       Em      D
Whats so funny 'bout peace, love, and understanding?

My spirit gets / so downhearted sometimes
          [riff A]
So where are the strong ones?
          [riff A]
and who are the trusted?
                 Em        A           D       C
And where is the har - - - mony, sweet harmony

            G              D              Em                C
'Cause each time I feel it slippin' away  just makes me wanna cry,
G                    D                       Em      A
Whats so funny 'bout peace, love, and understanding? Oh
