[Verse 1]
        Am
You can look to the stars in search of the answer

Am
Look for God and life on distant planets

Fmaj7
Have your faith in the everafter

      G6               N.C.
While each of us holds inside the map to the labyrinth

G6  N.C.
    Heaven’s here on earth
Am Am Fmaj7 G6 [Verse 2]
Am
We are the spirit, the collective conscience

Am                                         Fmaj7
We create the pain and the suffering and the beauty in this world

G6  N.C.
    Heaven’s here on earth
[Chorus 1]
Am        Fmaj7                         G6
    In our faith in humankind, in our respect for what is earthly

        Fmaj7                  G6
In our unfaltering belief in peace and love and understanding
Am Am Fmaj7 G6 [Verse 3]
     Am
I’ve seen and met angels wearing the disguise

   Am
Of ordinary people leading ordinary lives

            Fmaj7
Filled with love, compassion, forgiveness and sacrifice

G6  N.C.
    Heaven’s in our hearts
[Chorus 1]
Am        Fmaj7                         G6
    In our faith in humankind, in our respect for what is earthly

        Fmaj7                  G6
In our unfaltering belief in peace and love and understanding
Am Am Fmaj7 G6 [Verse 4]
Am
Look around, believe in what you see

    Am
The kingdom is at hand, the promised land is at your feet

   Fmaj7
We can and will become what we aspire to be

G6  N.C.
    If heaven’s here on earth
[Chorus 2]
Am            Fmaj7                     G6
    If we have faith in humankind and respect for what is earthly

        Fmaj7                    G6       N.C.
And an unfaltering belief that truth is divinity...
N.C. And heaven’s here on earth [Instrumental] Am Am Fmaj7 G6 Am Am Fmaj7 G6 [Verse 5]
Am                   Am
    I’ve seen spirits, I’ve met angels

Fmaj7                     G6
    I’ve touched creations beautiful and wondrous

Am                  Am
    I’ve been places where I question all I think I know

Fmaj7                              G6
    I believe, I believe, I believe this could be heaven
Am Am Fmaj7 G6 [Verse 6]
Am
We are born inside the gates

         Am
With the power to create life and to take it away

    Fmaj7
The world is our temple, the world is our church

G6  N.C.
    Heaven’s here on earth
[Chorus 3]
Am            Fmaj7                     G6
    If we have faith in humankind and respect for what is earthly

        Fmaj7                  G6               N.C.
And an unfaltering belief in peace and love and understanding

N.C.                              Asus2
This could be heaven here on earth
