Heaven from H [Am/E] ell, blue skies from pa [G] in.
Can you tell a green  [D/F#] field from a cold steel 
ra [C] il, a smile from a ve [Am] il
Do you think you can t [G] ell?

Hot ashes for tr [Am/E] ees, hot air for a coo [G] l breeze, 
cold comfort for cha [D/F#] nge,
And did you exchan [C] ge a walk on part in the
