Share the Peaceful Easy Feeling Chords and Strumming:
Did You Know? Peaceful Easy Feeling was written by Jack Tempchin after sleeping on the floor of the coffee shop that he has performed in. He initially wrote the lyrics on the back of a flyer for the gig. Glenn Frey heard the song 8 days after forming his new band called The Eagles and ask if he could work on the song. When he presented Tempchin with a tape of the song Tempchin later said 'it was so good, I couldn't believe it!'

Peaceful Easy Feeling Lyrics
I like the way your sparkling earrings lay
Against your skin so brown
And I want to sleep with you in the desert night
With a billion stars all around
'Cause I got a peaceful easy feelin'
And I know you won't let me down
'Cause I'm already standin'
On the ground
And I found out a long time ago
What a woman can do to your soul
Aw but she can't take you any way
You don't already know how to go
And I got a peaceful easy feelin'
And I know you won't let me down
'Cause I'm already standin'
On the ground
I get this feelin' I may know you
As a lover and a friend
This voice keeps whisperin' in my other ear
Tells me I may never see you again
'Cause I get a peaceful easy feelin'
And I know you won't let me down
'Cause I'm already standin'
I'm already standin'
Yes, I'm already standin'
On the ground
