#24 in 1958
(I found this song done in D# as well as D.)
#1.
D I have sailed the peaceful waters of the ocean deep and blue. A D I held my breath and watched the western sunset's golden hue. D I've flown above the mountain peaks and valleys wide and green A D but you're the nearest thing to Heaven that I've seen.
CHORUS:
G D You're the nearest thing to Heaven, yes, you are. A D I have searched for happiness so long and far. D G But my search for love was through, the day that I found you. D A D Cause you're the nearest thing to Heaven, yes, you are.
#2.
D I confess that I've been tempted by alluring magic charms A D when a smile was flashed my way and stood before two open arms. D But I turned and walked away because I love you like I do, A D you're the nearest thing to Heaven, darlin', you.
CHORUS:
G D You're the nearest thing to Heaven, yes, you are. A D I have searched for happiness so long and far. D G But my search for love was through, the day that I found you. D A D Cause you're the nearest thing to Heaven, yes, you are.
#3.
D I have watched the silver raindrops fall to earth to cool the day. A D Watched the rainbow at twilight when the clouds had blown away. D I love the pretty flowers, money cannot buy their worth A D cause you're the nearest thing to Heaven on this Earth.
CHORUS:
G D You're the nearest thing to Heaven, yes, you are. A D I have searched for happiness so long and far. D G But my search for love was through, the day that I found you. D A D Cause you're the nearest thing to Heaven, yes, you are.
