Halfway To Heaven 
Recorded by Brantley Gilbert
Intro.:  | (Bm) (D) | (A) (G) | x 2
There's a (Bm)live oak tree you can (D)still see off (A)ol' one twenty-(G)nine
You can (Bm)see the scars, its (D)missin' bark where it (A)stopped my truck that (G)night
They say I (Bm)took a swing at (D)my best friend for (A)tryin' to take my (G)keys
Next (Bm)thing I knew, I was (D)upside down thinkin' (A)this is it for (G)me
(Chorus)
When you (D)see life flash before your eyes, the (A)good, the bad, the wrong, the right
(Bm)Fade in-(A)to a bright white line (G)shinin' down on you
You're (D)hangin' on by a thread (A)wonderin' which one's your last breath
(Bm)Knowin' (A)there's so much you have left to (G)do
You live your (Bm)life a (A)better man when you've (G)been
(A) Halfway to (Bm)heaven (D) | (A) (G)
First (Bm)thing I did was (D)hug my momma, (A) I even hugged my (G)dad
I (Bm)told them both how (D)much I love them, never (A)saw daddy cry like (G)that
Started (Bm)hangin' out with (D)my little brother, man I (A)never missed a (G)game
(Bm)I'm in church every (D)Sunday morning, (A)I pray every-(G)day
(Chorus)
When you (D)see life flash before your eyes, the (A)good, the bad, the wrong, the right
(Bm)Fade in-(A)to a bright white line (G)shinin' down on you
You're (D)hangin' on by a thread (A)wonderin' which one's your last breath
(Bm)Knowin' (A)there's so much you have left to (G)do
You live your (Bm)life a (A)better man when you've (G)been
(A) Halfway to (G)heaven (Bm) (A)
And I won't waste (G) (Bm) (A) one minute (G) (Bm) (A)
Yeah, my life's changed (G) (Bm) (A) and I'm gonna live it
Like I'm (D)hangin' on by a thread (A)wonderin' which one's my last breath
(Bm)Knowin' (A)there's so (D)much I have (A)left to (G)do
I live my (Bm)life a (A)better man, (G) I live my (Bm)life a (A)better man (G) (A) (G)
‘Cause I've (A) been halfway to (Bm)heaven (D) (A) (G)
Halfway to (Bm)heaven (D) | (A) (G) -----
