Intro: G#2 G#maj A# D#
G# A#
The air is getting hotter
G# D#
There's a rumbling in the skies
G# A#
I've been wading through the high muddy water
G# D#
With the heat rising in my eyes
Cdim G#2
Every day your memory grows dimmer
Fm D#
It doesn't haunt me like it did before
G# A#
I've been walking through the middle of nowhere
G# D#
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
G# A#
When I was in Missouri
G# D#
They would not let me be
G# A#
I had to leave there in a hurry
G# D#
I only saw what they let me see
Cdim G#2
You broke a heart that loved you
Fm D#
Now you can seal up the book and not write anymore
G# A#
I've been walking that lonesome valley
G# D#
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
G# A#
People on the platforms
G# D#
Waiting for the trains
G# A#
I can hear their hearts a-beatin'
G# D#
Like pendulums swinging on chains
Cdim G#2
When you think that you lost everything
Fm D#
You find out you can always lose a little more
G# A#
I'm just going down the road feeling bad
G# D#
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
G# A#
I'm going down the river
G# D#
Down to New Orleans
G# A#
They tell me everything is gonna be all right
G# D#
But I don't know what "all right" even means
Cdim G#2
I was riding in a buggy with Miss Mary-Jane
Fm D#
Miss Mary-Jane got a house in Baltimore
G# A#
I been all around the world, boys
G# D#
Now I'm trying to get to heaven before they close the door
G# A#
Gonna sleep down in the parlor
G# D#
And relive my dreams
G# A#
I'll close my eyes and I wonder
G# D#
If everything is as hollow as it seems
Cdim G#2
Some trains don't pull no gamblers
Fm D#
No midnight ramblers, like they did before
G# A#
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
G# D#
Now I'm trying to get to heaven before they close the door
