[Verse]
C G
Well, the headlines in heaven tell about a woman's heart
Am7 F
Who was on the streets of Brooklyn out in the cold and dark
Dm F
All that she had left was something warm to eat
Dm G
But she came across a child with no shoes on her feet
Am G/B C F D
It was all she had, but she gave it anyway
Dm G C F/C C
That's what the headlines in heaven say
C G
In the headlines in heaven, there's a man from New Orleans
Am7 F
With a wife and two children, and a young secretary
Dm F
One late night they were alone in the office
Dm G
She snuck her way onto his lap and made a promise
Am G/B C F D
It's what any man would've wanted, but he said no and walked away
Dm G C F/C C
That's what the headlines in heaven say
Am F C
The headlines of earth are big and bold
Am F C G
They tell about the things that are important to the world
Am7 F G#dim Am
They roll in like thunder, but quickly pass away
F G
The headlines of earth always fade
[Chorus]
C G
In the headlines of heaven, a man stationed in the Middle East
Am7 F
Lost both his legs in battle, but didn't ask for anything
Dm F
Instead he bought a ticket to go back
Dm G
And spent the next year building houses where his blood once ran
Am G/B C F D
It was the last thing you'd expect, but he did it anyway
Dm G C F/C C
That's what the headlines in heaven say
Am F C G
The headlines of heaven never make the front page here
Am G C G
They're the little acts of kindness that they only see up there
Am7 F G#dim Am
And they're written in the sky, and they never pass away
F G
Yeah, the headlines in heaven never fade
C G
Well, the headlines in heaven are for anyone at all
Am7 F
Who is faced with life's decisions, but chooses to stand tall
Dm F
We won't see these headlines till our lives have ended
Dm G
But they're saving 'em up there so we'll remember
G#dim Am G/B C F D
Oh, the headlines in heaven are waiting for your name
Dm G C F/C C
What will the headlines in heaven say?
