[Verse 1]
[Am]The litt[G]le girl,[F] she said [C]to m[G]e[C]
What are these [F]things that [G]I c[F]an s[C]ee
Each night when [F]I come h[C]ome f[G]rom school
[C]When mama cal[F]ls me in [C]fourtee[G]n
[C]Oh every nig[F]ht a baby die[C]s
And every [F]night a mama [G]cries
[C]What makes those [F]men do what they do
[C]To make that per[F]son bla[G]ck and blu[C]e
Grandpa [F]says [G]they're happy [C]now
They sit with [F]God [G]in para[C]dise
With [F]angels' [G]an d still [C]somehow,
it makes me [F]feel, [G]fine ice[Am]
[C]Tell me there's a [F]heaven,
[C]tell me tha[Dm]t it'[C]s true
[F]Tel[G]l me there's a r[C]eason[G]
why I'm [F]seeing what [C]I do
Tell me [G]there's a [F]heaven
[C]where all those [Dm]people [C]go[F]
[G]Tell me they're [C]all happy [G]now
Papa, [F]tell me that it's [C]so[Am][F][Am][F]

[C]That there's a pla[F]ce for me [G]an [F]d you
[G]Where hun[C]gry childre[Dm]n smi[C]le and s[G]ay[C]
We [F]wouldn't have [Dm]no ot[C]her wa[G]y[C]
That every [F]painful [G]crack of bones
[C]Is a [F]step [C]along [G]the [C]way
Every [F]wrong done [G]is a game [Am]plan
[Dm]To that great and jo[G]yful d[C]ay
An[F]d I'm looking at t[G]he
father [F]and the [C]son
And I'm [F]looking at the [G]mother

And I'm [Am]watching them in tears of pain
And I'm watching them suffer
Don't tell that little girl,

[C]Tell me [Dm]that [C]it's true
[F]Tel[G]l me there's a reason
Why I'm [F]seeing what [C]I do
Tell me [G]there's a [F]heaven
[C]Where all those [Dm]people [C]go[F]
[G]Tell me they're all [C]happy [G]now
Papa, [F]tell me that it's so
