G  
Got a picture of your house 
            Bm                 
   And your standing by the door. 
        C                     
   It's black and white and faded 
            G              D       
   And it's looking pretty worn. 
 

           G               
   See the factory that I worked 
         Bm             
   Silhouetted in the back. 
       C            
   The memories are gray, 
                   G             D 
   but man they're really coming back. 
 

           C              D           G 
   I don't need to be the king of the world 
      C               D            G  D   C 
   As long as I'm the hero of this little girl. 
 

   G            D        C 
   Heaven isn't too far away, 
   G            D     C 
   Closer to it every day. 
      G                D             C 
   No matter what your friends might say... 
 

         G                 
   How I love the way you move 
           Bm               
   And the sparkle in your eyes. 
             C           
   There's a color deep inside them 
          G             D 
   Like a blue suburban sky. 
 

          G                  
   When I come home late at night 
       Bm             
   And you're in bed asleep, 
     C          
   I wrap my arms around you 
      G              D 
   So I can feel you breathe. 
 

           C            D    G 
   I don't need to be a superman. 
      C                D            G  D    C
   As long as you will always be my biggest fan. 
 

   G            D        C 
   Heaven isn't too far away, 
   G            D     C 
   Closer to it every day. (oh-oh) 
      G               D             C 
   No matter what you friends might say... 
   D            C 
   We'll find a way. 
 
   (Whoa, yeah, babe) 
 

           G                 
   Now the lights are going out 
    Bm              
   Along the boulevard. 
       C             
   The memories come rushing back 
          G               D 
   And it makes it pretty hard. 
 

            G                
   I've got nowhere left to go 
       Bm              
   And no one really cares. 
     C                       
   I don't know what to do 
           C            D      G 
   But I'm never giving up on you. 
 

   G            D        C 
   Heaven isn't too far away, 
   G            D     C 
   Closer to it every day. (oh-oh) 
   G                   D        
   No matter what your friends say, 
     C                D       
   I know we're gonna find a way. 
 
   Heaven 
   Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh 
   Heaven 
   Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh 
   Heaven 
   Its not too far away 
   Oh-oh 
   Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh 
   Yeah
