Tell Me Theres A Heaven Chords

(ver. 1)
Chris Rea
[Intro]
 Bm
 
 
[Verse]
           Em7      Asus4   D
The little girl she said to me
               Em7        Asus4   Dmaj7
What are these things that I can see
                Em7     Asus4    D
Each night when I come home from school
          Em7      Asus4  D
When mama calls me in for tea
         Em7     Asus4 D
Oh every night a baby dies
          Em7    Asus4 Dmaj7
And every night a mama cries
                 Em7    Asus4     Dmaj7
What makes those men do what they do
             Em7    Asus4     D
To make that person black and blue
 
        Gmaj7 A9         D
Grandpa says their happy now
              Gmaj7 A     D
They sit with God in paradise
             Gmaj7  A               D
With angels' wings and still somehow
            Gmaj7 G9  Bm
It makes me feel like ice
 
 
[Chorus]
D
Tell me there's a heaven
D                 Em7
Tell me that it's true
Asus4
Tell me there's a reason
        G             D
Why I'm seeing what I do
D
Tell me there's a heaven
D                      Em7
Where all those people go
Asus4
Tell me they're all happy now
     G                 D
Papa tell me that it's so
 
 
[Interlude]
Bm
 
 
[Verse]
        Em7      Asus4     D
So do I tell her that it's true
               Em7       Asus4  Dmaj7
That there's a place for me and you
             Em7      Asus4     D
Where hungry children smile and say
           Em7     Asus4  D
We wouldn't have no other way
           Em7     Asus4    Dmaj7
That every painful crack of bones
     Em7   Asus4     D
Is a step along the way
      Em7   G         Dmaj7 Bm7
Every wrong done is a game plan
        Em7      Asus4   D
To that great and joyful day
 
 
        Gmaj7          A9             D
And I'm looking at the father and the son
        Gmaj7          A9             D
And I'm looking at the mother and the daughter
        Bm
And I'm watching them in tears of pain
        Bm
And I'm watching them suffer
      Bm
Don't tell that little girl
     A9
Tell me
 
 
[Chorus]
D
Tell me there's a heaven
D
Tell me that it's true
Asus4
Tell me there's a reason
        G             D
Why I'm seeing what I do
D
Tell me there's a heaven
D                      Em7
Where all those people go
Asus4
Tell me they're all happy now
     G                 D
Papa tell me that it's so
