You're The Nearest Thing To Heaven

Johnny Cash=Man In Black

VERSE 1:

C

I have sailed the peaceful waters of the ocean deep and blue

G7 C

I held my breath and watch the Western sunset's golden hue.

I've flown above the mountain peaks and valleys wide and green

G7 C C7

But you're the nearest thing to Heaven that I've seen.

CHORUS:

F C

You're the nearest thing to Heaven, yes you are.

G7 C

I have searched for happiness so long and far.

C7 F

But my search for love was through the day that I found you.

C G7 C

'Cause you're the nearest thing to Heaven, yeas you are.

VERSE 2:

I confess that I've been tempted by alluring magic charms.

When a smile was flashed my way and stood before two open

arms.

But I turn and walk away because I love you like I do.

You're the nearest thing to Heaven, darling you.(CHORUS)

VERSE 3:

I have watched the silver raindrops fall to Earth to cool the day.

Watched the rainbow at twilight when the clouds had blown

away.

I love the pretty flowers but I cannot vie their worth.

But you're the nearest thing to Heaven on this Earth.(CHORUS)
