Letter From Heaven Chords & Lyrics - Mark Erelli

[INTRO]
[D]

[VERSE 1]
Mama Cass has dropped some weight [G]

And Charlie Parker’s clean
[E]Django’s fingers have both gone straight
And they’ve got [G]driving lessons [E]for James Dean [D]

Jimi’s playing faster
Some[G]times we jam all [D]day
And [E]old Abe Lincoln is a happy boy
’Cause he [G]finally got to see the [A]end of the play

[CHORUS]
It’s a [G]great life here in [D]heaven
It’s [G]better than the Bible [D]said
It’s a [G]great life here in [D]heaven
It’s a [A]great life when you’re [D]dead

[VERSE 2]

There ain’t no egos anywhere
And [G]no one talks show[D]biz
And [E]Gabriel, he’s got a great big smile
He’s taking [G]lessons from Miles and [A]Diz
Bing [D]Crosby’s on the green in one
And he’s [G]singing when he [D]putts
And [E]Elvis really likes to visit earth
Just to [G]drive you people [A]nuts

[CHORUS]
It’s a [G]great life here in [D]heaven
It’s [G]better than the Bible [D]said
It’s a [G]great life here in [D]heaven
It’s a [A]great life when you’re [D]dead

[VERSE 3]

And me, I couldn’t be happier
The [G]service here is [D]fine
They’ve got [E]dinner ready at half-past nine
And I’m [A]going steady with Patsy [E]Cline
And [D]just last night in the barroom
I bought [G]Robert Johnson a beer
Yeah, I [E]know, everybody’s always
Sur[G]prised to find him [A]here

[CHORUS]
It’s a [G]great life here in [D]heaven
It’s [G]better than the Bible [D]said
It’s a [G]great life here in [D]heaven
It’s a [A]great life when you’re [D]dead

[CHORUS]
It’s a [G]great life here in [D]heaven
It’s [G]better than the Bible [D]said
It’s a [G]great life here in [D]heaven
It’s a [A]great life when you’re [D]dead
