          A        D              A      D
As I walk through     This wicked world
              F#m          B             E       D
Searching for light in the darkness of insanity
        A     D               A       D
I ask myself     "Is all hope lost?"
               F#m      B           E         D
"Is there only pain and hatred, and misery?"
         A                E
And each time I feel like losin' sight
        F#m               D
There's one thing I wanna know,
A                    E                     F#m        B
Whats so funny 'bout peace, love, and understanding?  Oh
A                    E                     F#m        E
Whats so funny 'bout peace, love, and understanding?

          A   D                   A      D
As I walk on     Through troubled times
               F#m    B           E      D
My spirit gets so downhearted sometimes
              A     D            A        D
So where I've gone     And who I trusted
                 F#m B       E              D
And where is the har - mon - y, sweet harmony
            A              E
'Cause each time I feel it slippin' away
   F#m                 D
It just makes me wanna cry,
 A                    E                     F#m         B
"Whats so funny 'bout peace, love, and understanding?"  Oh
 A                    E                     F#m         E
"Whats so funny 'bout peace, love, and understanding?"
