D                 Em
Everyone is trying to get to the bar.
A                G                      D
The name of the bar, the bar is called Heaven.
D                         Em
The band in Heaven plays my favorite song.
A                   G                            D
They play it once again, they play it all night long

Chorus:
Bm                   Am
Heaven, heaven is a place
               C                     G
A place where nothing, nothing ever happens.
Bm                   Am
Heaven, heaven is a place
               C                     G
A place where nothing, nothing ever happens.

There is a party
Everyone is there
Everyone will leave
At exactly the same time
It's hard to imagine
That nothing at all
Could be so exciting
Could be so much fun

Chorus

When this kiss is over
It will start again
It will not be any different
It will be exactly the same
It's hard to imagine
That nothing at all
Could be so exciting
Could be this much fun

Chorus
