[Verse]
      A                              D                           A
It's cold this time of year and the people in this city make it colder
A                                      F#m                      E
They've all forgotten what it means to lend a hand or cry on a shoulder
         D                      C#m               Bm7            A    D
In this land of opportunity we fight like hell to make an extra dime
          A                            E                             A
It would surely get the best of me without the heaven in my woman's eyes

[Chorus]
          E                              D                                  A
It's the heaven in my woman's eyes that makes life's hell a better place to be
          E                              D                            E
It's the heaven in my woman's eyes that gives the inspiration that I need
      D                             C#m            Bm7           A   D
Sometimes it seems a man is born to lose no matter how hard he tri--es
 A                                   E                             A
Life on earth would sure be hell without the heaven in my woman's eyes

[Verse]
   A                          D                                 A
Simplicity was once a way of life but now it's buried with our past
A                               F#m                       E
A dollar used to go a long long way but now it just goes fast
   D                             C#m         Bm7           A    D
Oh how I wish that I could be as free as our union eagle flies
         A                            E                             A
But the only time I'm free is when I view the heaven in my woman's eyes

[Chorus]
          E                              D                                  A
It's the heaven in my woman's eyes that makes life's hell a better place to be
          E                              D                            E
It's the heaven in my woman's eyes that gives the inspiration that I need
      D                             C#m            Bm7           A   D
Sometimes it seems a man is born to lose no matter how hard he tri--es
 A                                   E                             A
Life on earth would sure be hell without the heaven in my woman's eyes

[Outro]
 A                                   E                             A
Life on earth would sure be hell without the heaven in my woman's eyes
