Chords for Jim Steinman - Heaven Can Wait (1972 Demo)

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] Heaven can wait, [B] and a band of angels [D] wrapped up in my heart
_ [Bm] Will [F#m] take me through the [G] lonely night, [E] through the cold [A] of the day
And I [D] know, I know, [G] heaven can [Bm] wait
And all the gods come down here [D] just to sing for me
_ [Bm] And the melody's gonna [G] make me fly, [E] without pain, [A] without fear
Give [G] me [D] all of your dreams [A] and let me go along on my [G] way
Give me [D] all of your prayers to [F#m] sing and I'll turn the night into the [C] skylight of day
I got a [G] taste of paradise, [A#] I'm never [F] gonna let it [C] slip away
_ _ _ I got a [G] taste of paradise [A#] and it's all I [F] really need to [A] make me stay
Just like a [D] child again, heaven [G] can wait
[Bm] And all I got is time [D] until the end of time
I [Bm] won't [F#m] look back, I [G] won't look back
[E] Let the altar [A] shine, won't you let it [D] shine
_ [D] _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
_ [D] _ I'm released [Bm] _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ [E] _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ [D] but [A] I don't know to where
_ [G] Nobody's [D] gonna tell me [F#m] not to care
[C] I'm _ [G] _ _ [A#] never gonna [F] let it slip [C] away
_ _ I got a taste of [G]
paradise, if [A#] I had it any sooner [F] you know
That [A] I never would have run away from [D] my home
Heaven [G] can wait
[Bm] And all I got is time until [D] the end of time
_ [Bm] I won't [F#m] look back, I won't [G] look back
Let [E] the altar [A] shine, [A] won't you let it [D] shine
Heaven [G] can wait
[Bm] _ _ [A] _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [C#] _
