E        B
I see a turning wheel
      C#m       C#m7
On a dusty track
A                      E
Caught in the void and empty space
            F#m          F#m7
In between there and back
B            B/A           B
And the paradise of going somewhere
         B7           E B C#m C#m7
That's still so far away
A     E        F#m     F#m7
Happy, boy you bet I am
 B                 B/A                B         B7
Holding on to this smile for just as long as I can

Chorus:
 E    A
Heaven
Am6          E     A Am6
Do Di Do Do heaven

It's all bright in front
And it's all dark behind
Living for the now that's in between
the bridges and the signs
And getting there is still a long, long way to go
While the others dream a wish
This is everything I officially need to know
Happy, boy you bet I am
Holding on to this smile for just as long as I can

Chorus:
Heaven, heaven
Heaven, heaven
