D                             A
Pinch me I must be dreaming, waking up with you and feeling...
   G                                      D
The tender touch of your good morning kiss...
                                             A
No where else on earth is better than being next to you...
          G                                     D           Em D
Next to heaven, it doesn’t get any better than this...


[Chorus]
           G                             D
Next to heaven lies my fate, my best friend and my sole mate...
        A                               D                      Em D
God knows this kind of love... only comes from up above...   
            G                            D
You’re the answer to my prayers, oh nothing else compares...
              A              G                 D
I’m next to heaven.... when I am next to you...

E G D


[Verse 2]
         D                                  A
And you look just like an angel tangled in white satin sheets...
       G                                       D
Lying there... with your hair all in a mess...
       D                                   A
And I swear you look your best... all dressed up next to nothing...
          G                                            D
Next to heaven, it doesn’t get any better than this...


[Chorus]
           G                             D
Next to heaven lies my fate, my best friend and my sole mate...
      A                                    D
God knows this kind of love... only comes from up above...
            G                            D
You’re the answer to my prayers, oh nothing else compares...
              A              G                 D
I’m next to heaven.... when I am next to you...

Next to heaven lies my fate, my best friend and my sole mate...
      A                                    D
God knows this kind of love... only comes from up above...

You’re the answer to my prayers, oh nothing else compares...

 A              G                 D
I’m next to heaven.... when I am next to you...
