INTRO
CC GG DDD DSUS DSUS D
G
Got a picture of your house
Bm (BC)
And your standing by the door
C
It’s black and white and faded
D
And it’s looking pretty worn
G
See the factory that I worked
Bm (BC)
Silhouetted in the back
C
The memories are gray
D
But man there really coming back
C D G
I don’t need to be the king of the world
C D Em D C
As long as I’m the hero of this little girl
G D C
Heaven isn’t to far away
G D C
Closer to it every day
G D C
No matter what your friends might say
G
How I love the way you move
Bm (BC)
And the sparkle in your eyes
C
There’s a color deep inside them
D
Like a blue suburban sky
G
When I come home late at night
Bm (BC)
And your in bed asleep,
C
I wrap my arms around you
D
So I can feel you breath
C D G
I don’t need to be a superman
C D Em D C
As long as you will always be my biggest fan
G D C
Heaven isn’t to far away
G D C
Closer to it every day
G D C
No matter what your friends might say
G D C
We’ll find a way
SOLO CHORD PROGESSION
AA EEE DD DDD EE REPEAT
G
Now the lights are going out
Bm (BC)
Along the boulevard
C
The memories come rushing back
D
And it makes it pretty hard
G
I’ve got nowhere left to go
Bm (BC)
And no one really cares
C
I don’t know what to do
D
But I’m never giving up on you
A E D
Heaven isn’t to far away
A E D
Closer to it every day
A E D
No matter what your friends might say
A E D E
I know were gonna find away
ENDING CHORD PROGESSION (POWER CHORDS)
BB F#F#F# EE F#F#F#F#F# REPEAT

| Mmcambells, if you're going to bad mouth a hair metal band do it to Poison, okay? Out of all the glam bands of the 80s Warrant would have to be in my top 5. This song isn't one of my personal favourites but it's beautiful nevertheless. | |

| The one thing I'm confused about is in the first pre-chorus, he says "I don't need to be the king of the world, as long as I'm the hero of this LITTLE GIRL". Little girl...maybe his daughter? Because "baby girl" might mean loved girlfriend or wife, but "little girl" is not at all your girlfriend or wife. Beautiful and amazing song either way, just curious about that part. | |

| Personally if no one has noticed every old song is either about sex, drugs, or alcohol. And I'm pretty sure this one's not about the last 2. The song is talking about having sex with someone he loves. | |

| Yea I agree with ^exeF I love this song but have two different opinions about the meaning of it. The first was of a rock star or dad or some idol to this little girl whether child or teen and she's depressed but her idol gives her hope no matter what hard ships gets in her way that she will be truly happy aka Heaven's not too far away and the second meaning is like everyone else is saying that its a wife or gf with a boyfriend or husband trying to make ends meet and proves himself worthy for this woman even though no one else agrees he is to her. | |

| It's about a guy so in love with a girl, but her friends think that he's not good enough for her. He's telling her that he will do whatever it takes to give her a good life. As long as she believes in him, they can be happy. I love this song too, it is such a classic. | |

| If a country singer re-did Heaven it would probably be a hit again. | |
