[Verse 1]
DThey shut the door
DPulled the shade, told us the news
GNow, it wasn't long till the pastor came
GRead a red line from Luke
BmGranddaddy said, "I'm probably damned
AFrom the damn things I've done"
G D/F#Then he grabbed Grandma's hand
EmAnd in front of everyone
N.C.
He told her
[Chorus]
DThe closest to Heaven that I'll ever be
GIs somewhere with you under a big old oak tree
BmIf it's hell-fire or streets of gold
ADon't know where I'm gonna go
Em D/F# GBut if one thing I know, I believe
DHoney, you're the closest to Heaven
A DThat I'll ever be
[Verse 2]
DThen he said, "I was noddin' off
DWhiskey on my breath
DIn a pinewood back pew
GI only talked to God every now and then
GTo thank Him for you
BmGuess He knew what He was doin'
AWhen He sent you my way
G D/F# EmYou were the only chance I ever had at ever bein' saved"
[Chorus]
DYeah, the closest to Heaven that I'll ever be
GIs somewhere with you under a big old oak tree
BmIf it's hell-fire or streets of gold
ADon't know where I'm gonna go
Em D/F# GBut if one thing I know, I believe
DHoney, you're the closest to Heaven
A DThat I'll ever be
[Bridge]
Bm ATwenty-one guns, folded flag in her lap
G D/F#One headstone blank
Em7Next to one etched in black
N.C.
And it reads
[Chorus]
DThe closest to Heaven that I'll ever be
GIs somewhere with you under a big old oak tree
BmIf it's hell-fire or streets of gold
ADon't know where I'm gonna go
Em D/F# GBut if one thing I know, I believe
DHoney, you're the closest to Heaven
A Bm EThat I'll ever be
GHoney, you're the closest to Heaven
A DThat I'll ever be
