For my seventh birthday I was given a CD player And I played Paul Kelly again and again and again My dad listened to Coldplay But I'd always ask him To play Kat Stevens again and again and again Some people believe in a God above Who says hello and he sends his love And bring to us, peace on earth, but I don't need no winged friends Just my guitar and some paper and pens That's right my friends I believe in music I remember on Christmas Eve My uncle brought his guitar and he Showed me how to play David Bowie's Space Oddity I played until my fingers bled My mum sent me off to bed The next day Santa brought me my own guitar Some people believe in a God above Who says hello and he sends his love And bring to us, peace on earth, but I don't need no winged friends Just my guitar and some paper and pens That's right my friends I believe in music My grandpa was very sick I played his favourite song for him Amazing Grace and a piano in the back of a hospital wing Simple chords and a melody Made him grin from cheek to cheek The next day I cried as I said my goodbye Some people believe in a God above Who says hello and he sends his love And bring to us, peace on earth, but I don't need no winged friends Just my guitar and some paper and pens That's right my friends I believe in music
