Intro: C   Am  F  G 

verse 1 
  C             Am 
       For my seventh birthday 
                 F 
I was given a CD player 
        G                                        C 
And I played Paul Kelly again and again and again 
                       Am 
My dad listened to Coldplay 
                      F 
But I'd always ask him 
     G                                       C 
To play Kat Stevens again and again and again 

                           Am 
Some people believe in a God above 
                                    F 
Who says hello and he sends his love 
    G                                C 
And brings to us, peace on earth, but 
                Am 
I don't need no winged friends 
                                      F 
Just my guitar and some paper and pens 
          G 
That's right my friends 
                C 
I believe in music 

Am  F  G  C 

verse 2 
                     Am 
I remember on Christmas Eve 
                                   F 
My uncle brought his guitar and he 
   G                                      C 
Showed me how to play David Bowie's Space Oddity 
                            Am 
I played until my fingers bled 
                          F 
My mum sent me off to bed 
      G                                     C 
The next day Santa brought me my own guitar 

                           Am 
Some people believe in a God above 
                                    F 
Who says hello and he sends his love 
    G                                C 
And brings to us, peace on earth, but 
                Am 
I don't need no winged friends 
                                      F 
Just my guitar and some paper and pens 
          G 
That's right my friends 
                C 
I believe in music 

Am  F  G  C 

verse 3 
         Am 
My grandpa was very sick 
                                F 
I played his favourite song for him 
   G                                         C 
Amazing Grace and a piano in the back of a hospital 
                       Am 
Simple chords and a melody 
                                   F 
Made him grin from cheek to cheek 
     G                                   C 
The next day I cried as I said my goodbyes 
 
                           Am 
Some people believe in a God above 
                                    F 
Who says hello and he sends his love 
    G                                C 
And brings to us, peace on earth, but 
                Am 
I don't need no winged friends 
                                      F 
Just my guitar and some paper and pens 
          G 
That's right my friends 
                C
