What is the meaning of this song:

This song is about how everyone wants peace and people don't want the fight in the Vietnam war to continue. This song was made because many believe that their country couldn't be fighting in a war that has nothing to do with them, and many thought that the war shouldn't have started to begin with so everyone started to fight for peace in their country.

This line proves this as all they want is peace and are trying to tell people to give peace a chance hence the name give peace a chance: (This line is the chorus)

All we are saying is give peace a chance

All we are saying is give peace a chance

This song became a staple in anti-war song and this song was big on the movement for countries like America because why should they be fighting in another country civil war. Civil wars are wars between the city and it's kind of pointless because they get nothing out of it anyway.
