nearest thing to heaven Johnny Cash
I have [C]sailed the peaceful waters of the ocean deep and blue,
I [G7]held my breath and watched the western [C]sunset's golden hue.
I've flown above the mountain peaks and valleys wide and green.
But your the [G7]nearest thing to heaven that I've [C]seen.[C7]
Chorus:
You're the [F]nearest thing to heaven, yes you [C]are.
I have [G7]searched for happiness so long and [C]far.
But my search for love was [C7]through the [F]day that I found you,
'cause you're the [C]nearest thing to [G7]heaven, yes you [C]are.
I con[C]fess that I've been tempted by alluring magic charms,
When a [G7]smile was flashed my way and stood be[C]fore two open arms.
But I turn and walk away because I love you like I do.
You're the [G7]nearest thing to heaven, darling [C]you. (C[C7]horus)
I have [C]watched the silver raindrops fall to earth to cool the day,
Watched the [G7]rainbow at twilight when the [C]clouds had blown away.
I love the pretty flowers but it cannot vie their worth,
But you're the [G7]nearest thing to heaven on this [C]earth. [C7] (Chorus)
