You're The The Nearest Thing To Heaven

Written by James "Jimmy" Atkins/Johnny Cash/Hoyt Johnson

	  		
      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.

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)
