It's a Little More Like Heaven
by Hank Locklin
G
I have sailed the peaceful water salty ocean deep and blue
D7 G
Felt the rapture of the dawning thrilled through sunset's golden view
I've sought above the mountain peeks for valleys great and wide
D7 G
But it's a little more like heaven by your side
C G
It's a little more like heaven where you are
D7 G
I have sought for happiness both near and far
C
But my search for love was through the day that I met you
G D7 G
Cause it's a little more like heaven where you are
I have watched the crystal raindrops fall to earth to cool the day
D7 G
Watched the rainbow at twilight when the clouds have flown away
I've adored the clinging roses round my mountain home so dear
D7 G
But it's a little more like heaven when you're near
I've been tempted for a moment by your lure and magic charms
D7 G
Of a fickle flame and beauty while waltzin' in her arms
I cherished mem'ries of the past of friends so kind and true
D7 G
But it's a little more like heaven here with you
