Talking Heads - Heaven

the key and lyrics match the version of “heaven” from the talking heads’s movie
“stop making sense , ” but i don’t have the original on hand to tell you which key
that’s in . the one from “the name of this band is talking heads , ” for example ,
matches this almost exactly but it’s played a half – step higher ( D instead of D# ) .
