Chris Rea - Tell Me There's a Heaven: chords

           Dm7      Gsus4   C
The little girl she said to me
               Dm7        Gsus4   Cmaj7
What are these things that I can see
                Dm7     Gsus4       C
Each night when I come home from school
          Dm7      Gsus4   C
When mama calls me in for tea

Oh every night a baby dies
And every night a mama cries
What makes those men do what they do
To make that person black and blue

        Fmaj7  G    C
Grandpa says their happy now
           Fmaj7 G   C
They sit with God in paradise
            Fmaj7 G      C
With angels' wings and still somehow
           Fmaj7 G    Am
It makes me feel like ice

Chorus:
C
Tell me there's a heaven
                    F
Tell me that it's true
Gsus4
Tell me there's a reason
         F             C
Why I'm seeing what I do
C
Tell me there's a heaven
                        F
Where all those people go
Gsus4
Tell me they're all happy now
      F                 C
Papa tell me that it's so

So do I tell her that it's true
That there's a place for me and you
Where hungry children smile and say
We wouldn't have no other way
That every painful crack of bones

     Dm7   Gsus4     C
Is a step along the way
      Dm7    F        Cmaj7 Am7
Every wrong done is a game plan
         Dm7       Gsus4   C
To that great and joyful day

        Fmaj7           G              C
And I'm looking at the father and the son
        Fmaj7           G              C
And I'm looking at the mother and the daughter
        Am
And I'm watching them in tears of pain
And I'm watching them suffer
Don't tell that little girl
      G
Tell me

Chorus:
Tell me there's a heaven
Tell me that it's true
Tell me there's a reason
Why I'm seeing what I do
Tell me there's a heaven
Where all those people go
Tell me they're all happy now
Papa tell me that it's so
