       G             C/G         D        G 
From a distance, the world looks blue and green  
        C           D         G       D  C/G 
And the snow capped mountains white  
       G             C     D         G 
From a distance, the ocean meets the stream  
G/B     C     D        G      D 
And the eagle takes to flight  
G      Cmaj7     D       Em 
From a distance, there is harmony 
       C      G/B          G/D   D 
And it echoes through the land   
         C        G/B            C        G/B 
It's the voice of hope, it's the voice of peace 
         C        D     G    D  C/G  G  C  G/D  D 
It's the voice of every man 
  
From a distance, we all have enough  
And no one is in need  
There are no guns, no bombs, no disease,  
No hungry mouths to feed  
From a distance, we are instruments  
Marching in a common band  
Playing songs of hope, playing songs of peace 
They're the songs of every man  
  
G/C    C        D              G    Em 
God is watching us, God is watching us, 
Em7    Am7      C/D D      G 
God is watching us, from a distance   
 
From a distance, you look like my friend  
Even though we are at war 
From a distance, I can't comprehend  
What all this war is for  
From a distance, there is harmony  
And it echoes through the land 
It's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves,  
It's the heart of every man 
 
    G/C    C        D              G    Em 
And God is watching us, God is watching us,

God is watching us, from a distance

Oh God is watching us, from a distance
