Biography:
Jeffrey Foucault (born January 1976 in Janesville, Wisconsin) is an American singer-songwriter grown out of the americana/folk troubadour tradition. Foucault's musical career was seeded at seventeen, when he began playing John Prine tunes on his father's beat up mail-order guitar, and spent long evenings in his bedroom, spinning piles of old records on a hand-me-down turntable. When he was 18 he stole a copy of Townes Van Zandt: Live and Obscure from a friend

Jeffrey Foucault - He Was In Heaven Before He Died
CAPO: 3rd Fret
[INTRO:] C
[VERSE 1:]
F
There's a rainbow of babies
G C
Draped over the graveyard
F C
Where all the dead sailors
G
Wait for their brides
C
And the cold bitter snow
F C
Has strangled each grass-blade
F C
Where the salt from their tears
G C
Washed in with the tide
[CHORUS:]
F C
And I smiled on the Wabash
G C
The last time I passed it
F C
I gave her a wink
G
From the passenger side
C
My foot fell asleep
F C
As I swallowed my candy
F C
Knowing he was in heaven
G C
Before he died
[VERSE 2:]
F
Now the harbour's on fire
G C
With the dreams and desires
F C
Of a thousand young poets
G
Who failed 'cause they tried
C
For a rhyme without reason
F C
Floats down to the bottom
F C
Where the scavengers eat 'em
G C
And wash out with the tide
[CHORUS:]
F C
And I smiled on the Wabash
G C
The last time I passed it
F C
I gave her a wink
G
From the passenger side
C
My foot fell asleep
F C
As I swallowed my candy
F C
Knowing he was in heaven
G C
Before he died
[INSTRUMENTAL:] C F C G C F C G F C G C F G C
[VERSE 3:]
F
The sun can play tricks
G C
With your eyes on the highway
F C
And the moon can lay sideways
G
'Til the ocean stands still
C
But a person can't tell
F C
His best friend he loves him
F C
'Til the time has stopped breathing
G C
And you're alone on the hill
[CHORUS:]
F C
But I smiled on the Wabash
G C
The last time I passed it
F C
I gave her a wink
G
From the passenger side
C
My foot fell asleep
F C
As I swallowed my candy
F C
Knowing he was in heaven
G C
Before he died
F C
Oh, he was in heaven
G
Before he died
F C G C
Oh, he was in heaven
