Nearest Thing To Heaven:Johnny Cash. #24 in 1958. ***(I found this song done in D# as well as D.) #1. D I have sailed the peaceful waters of the ocean deep and blue. A D I held my breath and watched the western sunset's golden hue. D I've flown above the mountain peaks and valleys wide and green.. A D but you're the nearest thing to Heaven that I've seen. CHORUS: D G D You're the nearest thing to Heaven, yes, you are. A D I have searched for happiness so long and far. D G But my search for love was through, the day that I found you. D A D Cause you're the nearest thing to Heaven, yes, you are. #2. D I confess that I've been tempted by alluring magic charms.. A D when the smile was flashed my way and stood before two open arms. D G But I turned and walked away because I love you like I do, A D you're the nearest thing to Heaven, darlin', you. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/j/johnny-cash/253675.html ] CHORUS: D G D You're the nearest thing to Heaven, yes, you are. A D I have searched for happiness so long and far. D G But my search for love was through, the day that I found you. D A D Cause you're the nearest thing to Heaven, yes, you are. #3. D I have watched the silver raindrops fall to earth to cool the day. A D Watched the rainbow at twilight when the clouds had blown away. D I love the pretty flowers but they cannot buy your worth.. A D cause you're the nearest thing to Heaven on this Earth. CHORUS: D G D You're the nearest thing to Heaven, yes, you are. A D I have searched for happiness so long and far. D G But my search for love was through, the day that I found you. D A D Cause you're the nearest thing to Heaven, yes, you are. A fifties smash from Kraziekhat. |
