Intro: A 
 
      A                              D                           A 
It's cold this time of year and the people in this city make it colder 
A                                      F#m                      E 
They've all forgotten what it means to lend a hand or cry on a shoulder 
         D                      C#m               Bm7            A    D 
In this land of opportunity we fight like hell to make an extra dime 
          A                            E                             A      
It would surely get the best of me without the heaven in my woman's eyes

          E                              D                                  A 
It's the heaven in my woman's eyes that makes life's hell a better place to be 
          E                              D                            E 
It's the heaven in my woman's eyes that gives the inspiration that I need 
      D                             C#m            Bm7           A   D       
Sometimes it seems a man is born to lose no matter how hard he tri--es 
 A                                   E                             A 
Life on earth would sure be hell without the heaven in my woman's eyes

   A                          D                                 A 
Simplicity was once a way of life but now it's buried with our past 
A                               F#m                       E 
A dollar used to go a long long way but now it just goes fast 
   D                             C#m         Bm7           A    D 
Oh how I wish that I could be as free as our union eagle flies 
         A                            E                             A    
But the only time I'm free is when I view the heaven in my woman's eyes 
 
 
REPEAT CHORUS 
 
 A                                   E                             A 
Life on earth would sure be hell without the heaven in my woman's eyes
