C         D             Bm
Here's a song for the nights
   Em        D
I think too much and
 C        D            Bm          Em   D
Here's a song when I imagine us together
 C        D               Bm        Em
Here's a song for when we talk too much
    D     C      D
And I forget my words

Chorus:
            G                   Em
Heaven can wait up high in the sky
      C      D
It's you and I
            G                      Em
Heaven can wait deep down in your eyes
     C       D
I'm yours tonight
          G             Em
Lay your heart next to mine
  Bm        C
I feel so alive
             G          Em      C
Tell me you want me to stay, forever
        D
'Cause heaven can wait

Here's a song
For the one who stole my heart
And ran so far
That Cupid couldn't catch her
Here's a song
For the kid who aimed so high
He shot her down

Chorus

C         D           Bm        Em        D
Here's a song for the nights I drink too much
      C       D
And spill my words

Chorus


'Cause heaven can wait
'Cause heaven can wait
