D6 Cdim Em7 A7 A7+5 D6 Cdim Em7
Heaven, I'm in Heaven,
A7 D6 A7 Bm7 F#7 B7
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak;
Edim DM7 Bm F#m C#m7-5 F#7
And I seem to find the hap - pi - ness I seek
B7 G G/F# Em7 A7sus4 A7+5 D
When we're out together dancing, cheek to cheek.
D6 Cdim Em7 A7 A7+5 D6 Cdim Em7
Heaven, I'm in Heaven
A7 D6 A7 Bm7 F#7 B7
And the cares that hang around me thro' the week
Edim DM7 Bm F#m C#m7-5 F#7
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
B7 G G/F# Em7 A7sus4 A7+5 D
When we're out together dancing, cheek to cheek.
Bridge:
D7 G A7 D Bm7 G A7 D Bm7
Oh! I love to climb a mountain, and to reach the highest peak,
D7 G A7 D B7 G A7 D
But it doesn't thrill me half as much as dancing cheek to cheek.
D7 G A7 D Bm7 G A7 D Bm7
Oh! I love to go out fishing in a river or a creek,
D7 G A7 D B7 G A7 D
But I don't enjoy it half as much as dancing cheek to cheek.

Fdim A7 Edim Gdim Bm7-5 A7 A7+5
The charm about you will carry me through' to
D6 Cdim Em7 A7 A7+5 D6 Cdim Em7
Heaven, I'm in Heaven,
A7 D6 A7 Bm7 F#7 B7
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak;
Edim DM7 Bm F#m C#m7-5 F#7
And I seem to find the hap - pi - ness I seek
B7 G G/F# Em7 A7sus4 A7+5 D
When we're out together dancing, cheek to cheek.
