Leaving Heaven
Matthew West and Vince Gill
INTRO: D MajorD A augmentedA G, D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
Well, it's been real nice living way up here
D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
In paradise, over the atmosphere
B minorBm E minorEm
But I can't stay long, gotta make my way
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD D MajorD A augmentedA G, D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
I'm leaving Hea - ven today
D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
You see the world is dark and it needs a light
D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
I'm gonna hang a star in the eastern sky
B minorBm E minorEm
So everybody's gonna know where I touch down
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
I'm leaving Hea - ven right now
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
I'm gonna walk around that broken Earth
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
Trading in these streets of gold
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
So if you ever wonder how much you're worth
E minorEm
You should know
G+G D MajorD G+G A augmentedA D MajorD D MajorD A augmentedA G, D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
That you're the reason why I'm leaving Heaven
D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
Ain't gonna be no kingdom, ain't gonna be no crown
D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
Just a little old manger, in a little old town
B minorBm E minorEm
But it'll do just fine for this humble King
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
I'm leaving Heaven let all the angels sing
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
I'm gonna walk around that broken Earth
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
Trading in these streets of gold
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
So if you ever wonder how much you're worth
E minorEm
You should know
G+G D MajorD G+G A augmentedA D MajorD D MajorD A augmentedA G, D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
You're the reason why I'm leaving Heaven
D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
And when my time comes to an end
D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
I'll lay down my life like a truest friend
B minorBm E minorEm
And when I get back home, I'm gonna make some room
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
So, don't you worry, 'cause I'm coming back for you
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
And you will say goodbye to that broken Earth
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
You're gonna walk on streets of gold
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
And if you ever wonder what my love is worth
E minorEm
Well you should know
G+G D MajorD G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
That I'm the reason you'll be seeing Heaven
G+G D MajorD G+G A augmentedA D MajorD D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
Oh, you're the reason why I'm leaving Heaven
D MajorD A augmentedA G, D MajorD A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
I'm leaving Heaven
