I was cutting the rug at that place called [A] Duggan with a girl named Linda Lou.
[D] When an in-law from Maine was coming to see and [G] looking [A] for you, Lou, [D] she said, [Em] hey, [D] now
I saw a woman with a hair color [E] yellow.
[G] Watch [F#] it [E] turn blue.
[F#m] [D] So I said, my woman there, I'm a man who [A] cares.
It might be [D] all for you.
I said, see, I didn't want to [A] fight you, but I didn't feel it.
[Dm]
[D] [A]
[D] Well, I was sitting and fearing for my life, [F#m] shaking like [A] a leaf on a tree.
[D] But you see me, thinking about all the problems [C#] that [Am] you're giving [A] me.
[Dm] Oh, what [D] a thing to say.
I didn't even think [G] I'd want to [F#] tell [E] from you.
[A] [D] And I know you don't love me, but I wish you'd let [A] me.
I just want to play [D] with you.
Clear your hands.
Say, won't you give me peace, love, give me peace, I'm the [A] master.
Give me peace, love, call the devil home.
[D]
Give me peace, love, give me peace, I'm the master.
[A] You'll never see me [D] no more.
Woo!
Oh, so much.
I [A] said, I'm [D]
going to get down to a [Em] little [B] business.

And [D] I'm a time son, but there ain't no fun, [Em] playing [G#m] straight down [A] the floor.
[D] But it's raining and it's raining, I can't stand the look, [G] the pain [F#] I was [E] looking for.
So [D] you can hear me screaming a mile [A] away, I was headed out the [D] door.
So here I am going, say, won't you give me peace, love, give me peace, I'm the master.
[A] Give me peace, love, call the devil home.
[D] Give me peace, love, give me peace, I'm the master.
[A] You'll never see me [D] no more.
Woo!
So leave it back there.
