(Intro.)

(Verse)
Well I was (Em)only scared of the (C)devil and her (G)dad
So we (Em)parked somewhere we (C)knew they'd never look (G)
(Em) Naw, I've never seen (C)nothing like her
(G)Playin' with the flame of her momma's lighter
(Em) Naw, it wasn't very (C)long 'fore I was (G)hooked

(Chorus)
(Em)Heaven was a (C)preachers spot in (G)that first church (D)parkin' lot
Her (Em)hangin' onto me (C) like the cross on the (G)rearview does (D)
Her (Em)eyes were blue, the (C)words were red on (G)that half pack of (D)cigarettes
At (Em)seventeen, (C)that's what Halle-(G)lujah was (D)
(C)Life wasn't heavy in the back of that Chevy
Me and (D)her and the holy ghost
(C)Something about us, hell of a rush
(D)Fallin' in love lightin' up them Holy (Em)Smokes

(Solo)

(Verse)
They'd (Em)run us off and (C)we'd come runnin' back (G)
And we'd (Em)pick up where we (C)left off the night be-(G)fore
She said (Em)how pissed off would your (C)momma be
If we (G)walked in there and you (D)married me
(E) Even if we (C)never made it (G)through them old wood doors

(Chorus)
(Em)Heaven was a (C)preachers spot (G)in that first church (D)parkin' lot
Her (Em)hangin' onto (C)me like the cross on the (G)rearview does (D)
Her (Em)eyes were blue, the (C)words were red (G)on that half pack of (D)cigarettes
At (Em)seventeen, (C)that's what Halle-(G)lujah (D)was
(C)Life wasn't heavy in the back of that Chevy
Me and (D)her and the holy ghost
(C)Something about us, hell of a rush
(D)Fallin' in love lightin' up them Holy (Em)Smokes

(Break)
(Em)Nothin' 'bout those nights (C) felt like (G)sinnin'
And (Em)Jesus forgives (C) but I can't for-(G)get when

(Chorus)
(Em)Heaven was a (C)preachers spot (G)in that first church (D)parkin' lot
Her (Em)hangin' onto (C)me like the cross on the (G)rearview does (D)
Her (Em)eyes were blue, the (C)words were red (G)on that half pack of (D)cigarettes
At (Em)seventeen, (C)that's what Halle-(G)lujah was (D)
(C)Life wasn't heavy in the back of that Chevy
