Verse 1:
 
 
Am  F                   Am   F 
Heaven is empty, nobody's there 
C  F                    Am  F 
I brought my camera, it stayed in its bag 
C                       F 
People ask me all the time what I want 
Am              F       D  F 
The answer is one, Heaven is empty 
 
 
 Verse 2:
Am      F               C       F 
Unconditional love, a crane at the top of the lake 
Am      F               Am      F 
I'll hang like Jesus, on my pulling bed 
Am      F 
Heaven is empty 
 
 
 Verse 3:
Am       F 
 
Am      F 
If a big cold bird tried to bring me a baby 
C       F       C       F       C       F 
I feel I would, get on his back, kissing his neck 
C       F               C       F 
Breathe in and out, kissing the doubt 
C       F               C       F 
And whisper softly, I don't want entry 
Am      F 
That place is empty 
 
Am      F
