(Intro)
(Verse)
Harvey Bodine died at 11:09 and he left behind a miserable wife
But at 11:14, his heart came back on the screen
Thanks to that defib machine, he came back to life
(Chorus)
Oh, but those [D/F#]five minutes were Heaven, a peace unlike[D/F#] he’d ever known
And as he came [D/F#]back to the livi[(Bm)]ng
He thought, please God, don’t make me go – back to life
DEm
(Verse)
When they told him what happened, how that green line had flattened
Ol’ Harvey just started laughing, he said you’re telling me I died
Aw, and he thought about that woman, how she treated him for years
All the yelling and the screaming and the naggin’ and the tears
And the way it wasn’t really all that bad when he lost his life
(Chorus)
Because those [D/F#]five minutes were Heaven, a peace unlike[D/F#] he’d ever known
And now he was [D/F#]back with the living and he found himself reaching for the phone
(Bridge)
And he called his lawyer, he called his priest
And told them ’bout how they’d restarted his heart
And how his wedding vows were technically ’til death do us part
You’ll probably judge me and so be it, but you know boys, here’s how I see it
(Verse)
Harvey Bodine died at 11:09 and he left behind a miserable wife
But at 11:14, my heart came back on that screen
Thanks to that defib machine, I’ve come back to life
(END)
