Heaven

Intro:
G-Bm-C-D7
G-Bm-C-D7-G
G Bm
Little cowboy grew up inside the bars
C D7
Watching them old folks sing and play guitar
G Bm
Swore that someday he’d be underneath the lights
C D7
Making as much money as anybody else there that night
C D7
Ten years later he’s downtown Nashville
G C
Selling something that ain’t for sale
C D7
Sometimes it’s heaven out here
G
Sometimes it’s hard to tell
G Bm
He could play any song on that radio
C D7
How he could do it there ain’t no way we could know
G Bm
And he could sing songs could bring tears to your eyes
C D7
There ain’t nobody listening bars downtown every Saturday night
C D7
He’s seen some good times
G C
But he’s seen mostly rain and hell
C D7
Sometimes it’s heaven out here
C D7
Sometimes it’s heaven out here
G
Sometimes it’s hard to tell
She must have been now 18 years old
Always in a hurry, headed out on the road
Round the corner the car started to fishtail
They ended up meeting her old friend guardrail
He’s pretty he don’t hate her now
He’s pretty sure she still hates herself
Sometimes it’s heaven out here
Sometimes it’s heaven out here
Sometimes it’s heaven out here
Sometimes it’s hard to tell
