Gentle touch that lets your brother knF#ow you underBstand

Oh if peoEple would stop takin, just once try to giBve
We would made this world were living in a beF#tter place to liBve

If we’d loEve one another in stead of finding fault
We could afford the price of peace, love is all it cF#osts
Well wouldEn’t it be great to live and sing in harmBony
Everybody take your brothers hand and F#sing my song with Bme
