From the 1985 Fegmania album, a minor hit.
To play to the original recording you need to capo on the 3rd fret, or transpose to F.
However... this arrangement is in D and based on his contemporary acoustic performances.
He rarely plays Heaven rarely now, and when he does so,
he plays in D, i.e. no capo as below.
Whatever - a great, great song!
