peace tonight
words and music by emily saliers
chords transcribed by john ihnat <scotchandpoetry@hotmail.com>

here's my attempt at emily's chords for peace tonight after watching the
filmore video.  this is  intended to be a work in progress, because there
are a number of holes (and maybe mistakes).   amy's chords appear to be the
same as emily's but without the little riffs.  please email me if  you have
any contributions -- i'd love to know them.

capo: 5th position

chords:

am: x02210
c:  x32010
c9: x32030
d:  xx0232
g:  320003 (for the verses)
(for the intro riff emily plays g as: 320033)

riffs:

intro riff (how i do it):

the pluses are quarter notes

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

e ----3---3-3-3-3-|--3---3---------|0---0-0---------|------0---0---0-|
b ----3---3-3-0-1-|--1---0-010-0-0-|1---1-1---------|------1---1---1-|
g ----0---0-0-0-0-|--0---0-000-0-0-|0---0-0---2---0-|------0---0---0-|
d ----0---0-0-0-0-|--0---0---------|2---2-0-02--2---|------2---2---2-|
a ----2---2-2-0-0-|--0---0---------|3---3-3---------|------3---2---3-|
e 3---3---3-3-3-3-|--3---3---------|----------------|----------------|

use hammer-ons for the little riffy parts in this intro.

c-riff, g-riff, am-riff:

these riffs are played by hammering on (actually pressing and releasing for
a mute) the second  frett of both the third and fourth strings while playing
the normal open voicing of the chord.   that is, for c-riff, play a regular
c:
x32010
and then to play the riff, hammer on these two frets (2 or three times) with
the first and second  fingers:
xx22xx
so when you're playing a "c-riff", your fingering will look like:
x32200
same concept for the g-riff and am-riff.  the live at the filmore video
shows emily doing it.

well we used to have some money but we spent it
yeah so when we want to have it then we rent it
but we're cuttin' up the rug and i know you love me love me
and the best of everything here is free

oh when things get messy then we tidy up the room
we'll be no stranger to that dustpan and the broom

let's make peace tonight
the moon is bare and shining bright
let's make peace tonight
the moon is bare and shining bright
let's make peace tonight in a good time
