Heaven Is 10 Zillion Light Years Away

Stevie Wonder

Tom: C

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                               Em
 We need Him now; "Where is your God?"
F7                             Ab+  Am7
 That's what my friends ask me.
D7              Dm
 And I say it's taken him so long,
           F/G           C
'Cos we've got so far to 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                          Em
 For every man, he loves us all;
F7              Am        Ab+  Am7
 That's what my God tells me.
D7              Dm
 And I say it's taken him so long,
           F/G           C
'Cos we've got so far to come.

Chorus 1:
                      C
But in my heart I can feel it,
         Am
Feel his spirit, woah oh woah oh,
C                        Am
 Feel it, yeah, feel his spirit.
