I think a few years back.

I feel I get a glimppse of heaven right here on earth.

Oh hold me in your arms of love.

Sometimes I swear I feel your heartbeat.

I could never ever thank you enough,

so here's my life for whatever it's worth.

This is a fairly easy song to play.  The toughest part is the strum
pattern.  I'm not quite sure about the little solo at the end but any of
you figure it out, please send it to me at mxpxrulz@juno.com.
