Heaven For A While

          D                        
You know, someone told me once that
 A
 angels don't exist
         C                       
And that paradise was just a poor 
       G     A
man's dream
D                         A
Without hesitation, I can say he was
 mistaken
            C                      
'Cause I've wrapped my arms around 
          G
celestial wings
G/F#    Em               D/F#   
But for reasons we don't know, 
           G                     
some aren't meant to be here long
G/F#

    Em               D/F#         
And then one day the good Lord 
             A
calls them home

[Chorus]
    Bbm   Bm                       
Now I may never find peace or ful- 
A
fill some destiny
         G              G/F#      
I may be cursed just to walk this 
            Em A
earth alone
Bbm   Bm                          
And I never will erase the memory of
A
 her gentle face
          G                    
But I can go to the other side 
G/F#         Em
with a smile
       F#     G      A
'Cause I knew heaven for a while

          D                        
The other day I took a drive to 
  A
that place up on the hill
          C                        
I brought flowers and I laid them 
            G A
on the stone
      D                            
And I sat there for some time with 
     A
this runnin' through my mind
    C                            
How much we take for granted till 
           G
it's gone
G/F#   Em             D/F#      
Then I got back in my car and I 
G                 G/F#
slowly drove away
Em              D/F#              A
Knowing she was in a better place

[Chorus]
    Bbm   Bm                       
Now I may never find peace or ful- 
A
fill some destiny
         G              G/F#      
I may be cursed just to walk this 
            Em A
earth alone
Bbm   Bm                          
And I never will erase the memory of
A
 her gentle face
          G                    
But I can go to the other side 
G/F#         Em
with a smile

'Cause I knew heaven for a while

[Bridge]
    F     C         Eb      D
The world turns and seasons change
    Em             D/F#           
And rivers keep on runnin' to the 
    G A
sea
F     C       Eb     D
Tears dry and hearts heal
    Em               D/F#         
And what is meant to be will 
  A
always be ---

[Chorus]

Now I may never find peace or ful-

I may be cursed just to walk this
