Intro:

C Am, Dm G7

Verse 1:

[C] They say that heaven is;
[Am] 10 zillion light years away,
[Dm] And just the pure at heart,
[G7] Will walk her, righteous streets, someday.

[C] They say that heaven is;
[Am] 10 zillion light years away,
[Fdim] But if there is a God;
[F7] We need Him now; "Where is your [Em]God?"
[F7] That's what my friends ask me.[Ab+][Am7]
[D7] And I say it's [Dm]taken him so long,
'Cos we've [F/G]got so far to [C]come.
Tell me people;

Verse 2:

[C] Why can't they say that hate is;
[Am] 10 zillion light years away?
[Dm] Why can't the light of good,
[G7] Shine God's love in every soul?

[C] Why must my colour black;
[Am] Make me a lesser man?
[Fdim] I thought this world was made,
[F7] For every man, he loves us [Em]all;
[F7] That's what my [Am]God tells [Ab+]me.[Am7]
[D7] And I say it's [Dm]taken him so long,
'Cos we've [F/G]got so far to [C]come.

Chorus 1:

But in my heart I can [C]feel it,
Feel his [Am]spirit, woah oh woah oh,
[C] Feel it, yeah, feel his [Am]spirit.

Verse 3:

[C#] I...can't say that heaven is,
[Bbm] 10 zillion light years away,
[Ebm] But if so let all be pure at heart,
[F#] Just to walk her righteous streets, I pray.

[C#] Let God's love shine within',
[Bbm] To save our evil souls;
For [F#dim]those who don't believe,
Will [F#7]never see the light,
"Where is my [Fm]God?"
[F#7] He lives, in-[Bb]side of [Bb+]me.[Bbm7]
[Eb7] And I say it's [Ebm7]taken him so long,
'Cos we've [F#]got so far to [C#]come.
Now people;

[F#7] "Where is your [Fm]God?"
[F#7] Inside please [Bb]let [Bb+]him [Bbm7]be.
[Eb7] And I say it's [Ebm7]taken him so long,
'Cos we've [F#]got so far to [C#]come.
But if you open your heart;

Chorus 2:

You can [C#]feel it,
Feel His [Bbm]spirit, yeah.
[C#] Feel it,
Feel his [Bbm]spirit, woah oh woah oh,
[C#] Feel it,
You can feel His [Bbm]spirit.
I opened my heart one morning,
And I sho 'nuff could;
[C#] Feel it yeah yeah,
Feel His [Bbm]spirit,
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You can [C#]feel it, yeah,
Feel His [Bbm]spirit.
You can [C#]feel it, yeah,
Feel His [Bbm]spirit.
