F

[Verse 1]

F                              Bb
Deep in the heart of the infinite darkness
 F                         G           C
A tiny blue marble is spinning through space
  F                             Bb
Born in the splendor of God's holy vision
  F
And sliding away
   C                  F
Like a tear down his face.

 Bb
The closer you see
           F
The whole wide holy wonder

Of oceans and mountains
G             C
Rivers and trees
F                           Bb
And the strangest creation of many human
F
A creature of laughter
C             F
Freedom and dreams.

[Verse 2]

G                                   C
Now the warriors are waving their old rusty sabres
G                             A        D
Preachers are preaching the gospel of hate
 G                    C
By their behavior they're determined to teach us
    G                        D          G
A lesson we're soon to be learning too late.

       C
Look closer my brother
       G
We're killing each other
                            A      D
We'd better stop and get started today

[Chorus 1]
     G                       C
Because life is the question and life is the answer
     G
And God is the reason
      D         G
And love is the way.

[Chorus 2]
          G                       C
life is the question and life is the answer
     G
And God is the reason
      D         G
And love is the way...

[Chorus 3]
          G                       C
life is the question and life is the answer
     G
And God is the reason
      D         G
And love is the way.
