Chorus:

G       FdimAm
Heaven,
D7     G      FdimAm
I'm in heaven
D7     G           Am
And my heart beats so that
Gdim  G      B7-5  E7
I can hardly speak

A7    D7      Am
And I seem to find the
D7    Am     B7-5 E7
Happi-ness I seek
           Am           D7
When we're out together dancing,
         G     FdimAm7D7
Cheek to cheek

G       Bbdim[ [Am
Heaven,
D7     G      FdimAm
I'm in heaven
D7  G              Am
And the cares that hung
  Gdim     G           B7-5 E7
A-round me through the week

A7      D7     Am
Seem to vanish like a
D7        Am    B7-5   E7
Gambler's lucky streak
           Am           D7
When we're out together dancing,
         G     CG
Cheek to cheek

      Am      D7
Oh! I love to climb
  G        Fdim
A mountain
       Am        D7      G    G6
And to reach the highest peak
       Am      D7
But it doesn't thrill me
G       Fdim
Half as much
   Am      D7       G     G6
As dancing cheek to cheek

      Am      D7
Oh! I love to go out
G       Fdim
Fishing
     Am    D7   G     G6
In a river or a creek
      Am       D7
But I don't en-joy it
G       Fdim
Half as much
   Am      D7       G
As dancing cheek to cheek

Gm            Gm7
Dance with me
          Gdim
I want my arms about you
    F#dim
The charms about you
     Em       Am7     D7
Will carry me through to

G       FdimAm
Heaven,
D7     G      FdimAm
I'm in heaven
D7     G           Am
And my heart beats so that
Gdim  G      B7-5  E7
I can hardly speak

A7    D7      Am
And I seem to find the
D7    Am     B7-5 E7
Happi-ness I seek
           Am           D7
When we're out together dancing,
Bm7          E7
out together dancing,
           Am7          D13
When we're out together dancing
         G      F#6G6
Cheek to cheek
