Written by Irving Berlin, as performed by Taco Ockerse. This is probably a pretty
simplified version. For the most part, it seems to fit Fred Astaire's recording as well
(specifically, the recording found on Astaire's Dancing Cheek to Cheek collection). 
Though, for adapting this to any of the other numerous versions of Cheek to Cheek, bear in 
mind that
Taco's rendition is performed in C, and modulates to D.
[Chorus]
CHeaven, FI'm in CheavFen
And my Cheart beats Emso that AmI can Dmhardly EspeakA  
And I Dmseem to find the G7happiness I EseekA
