Pretty Nova, one year over 
              
Legal age of consent 
 
In the flower of sweet youth our 
                  
Days of heaven were spent 


                  
Giving that heaven away 
                  
Giving that heaven away 
                
Rock 'n' Roll, and freeing your soul, and 
                  
Giving that heaven away 


                                           
I'm looking 'round for that sixties sound - 
               
Those days are gone 
                                                    
And all us acid dropping, world stopping, be bopping 
                            
Freaks are just hanging on 


Little Nova, did you have to show the 
                   
Whole world how to rebel? 

Standing there with your long brown hair 
                                 
Like a cool breeze blowing through hell 


                  
Giving that heaven away 
                  
Giving that heaven away 

Back in those days we all were so crazy 
                  
Giving that heaven away 

|        |         |        |      |
|        |         |        |      |
|        |         |        |      |
|        |         |        |      |


                  
Giving that heaven away 
                  
Giving that heaven away 

Ooooooowh 
                  
Giving that heaven away 


                                          
Seems like the whole world's at a fire sale 
               
But I might be wrong 
                                                       
With all the home shopping, Bling bling and hip hopping 

Maybe it's just going strong 


         
But hey now Nova, we both know the 
                           
Ones who're always making it pay 
 
Well any fool can sell a jewel 
                         
But an angel will give it away 


                  
Giving that heaven away 
                  
Giving that heaven away 

Oooooooh I'm going go down singing 
                      
And giving that heaven away 

|        |         |        |      |
|        |         |        |      |


Where did the day go in that Winnebago? 
                     
The two of us hot as a stove 
       
Fools for pleasure, digging for treasure 
                      
Down in that Black Oak grove 
                  
Giving that heaven away 
                  
Giving that heaven away 

Oooooooh 
                  
Giving that heaven away
