Tracy Chapman - Heaven's Here on Earth: chords

        Am
You can look to the stars in search of the answer
Look for God and life on distant planets
 F
Have your faith in the everafter
       G
While each of us holds inside
the map to the labyrinth
Heaven’s here on earth

We are the spirit the collective conscience
We create the pain and
the suffering and the beauty in this world
Heaven's here on earth

Chorus:
        F
In our faith in humankind
           G
In our respect for what is earthly
          F
In our unfaltering belief
    G
In peace and love and understanding

I've seen and met angels wearing the disguise
Of ordinary people leading ordinary lives
Filled with love, compassion,
forgiveness and sacrifice
Heaven's in our hearts

Chorus

Look around
Believe in what you see
The kingdom is at hand
The promised land is at your feet
We can and will become what we aspire to be
If Heaven's here on earth

Chorus:
If we have faith in humankind
And respect for what is earthly
And an unfaltering belief that truth is divinity

And heaven's here on earth

We are born inside the gates with
the power to create life
And to take it away
The world is our temple
The world is our church
Heaven's here on earth

Chorus
If we have faith in humankind
And respect for what is earthly
And an unfaltering belief
In peace and love and understanding

This could be
Heaven here on earth
