Ab
Pretty Nova, one year over
Bb Eb
Legal age of consent
Ab
In the flower of sweet youth our
Bb Eb
Days of heaven were spent


Bb Eb
Giving that heaven away
Bb Eb
Giving that heaven away
Ab
Rock 'n' Roll, and freeing your soul, and
Bb Eb
Giving that heaven away


Ab Bb
I'm looking 'round for that sixties sound -
Eb
Those days are gone
Ab Bb
And all us acid dropping, world stopping, be bopping

Freaks are just hanging on

Ab
Little Nova, did you have to show the
Bb Eb
Whole world how to rebel?
Ab
Standing there with your long brown hair
Bb Eb
Like a cool breeze blowing through hell


Bb Eb
Giving that heaven away
Bb Eb
Giving that heaven away
Ab
Back in those days we all were so crazy
Bb Eb
Giving that heaven away

|Ab |Ab |Bb |Eb |
|Ab |Ab |Bb |Eb |
|Ab |Ab |Bb |Eb |
|Ab |Ab |Bb |Eb |


Bb Eb
Giving that heaven away
Bb Eb
Giving that heaven away
Ab
Ooooooowh
Bb Eb
Giving that heaven away


Ab Bb
Seems like the whole world's at a fire sale
Eb
But I might be wrong
Ab Bb
With all the home shopping, Bling bling and hip hopping

Maybe it's just going strong


Ab
But hey now Nova, we both know the
Bb Eb
Ones who're always making it pay
Ab
Well any fool can sell a jewel
Bb Eb
But an angel will give it away


Bb Eb
Giving that heaven away
Bb Eb
Giving that heaven away
Ab
Oooooooh I'm going go down singing
Bb Eb
And giving that heaven away

|Ab |Ab |Bb |Eb |
|Ab |Ab |Bb |Eb |

Ab
Where did the day go in that Winnebago?
Bb Eb
The two of us hot as a stove
Ab
Fools for pleasure, digging for treasure
Bb Eb
Down in that Black Oak grove
Bb Eb
Giving that heaven away
Bb Eb
Giving that heaven away
Ab
Oooooooh
Bb Eb
Giving that heaven away

Coda:
|Ab |Ab |Bb |Eb | repeat
