CAPO 3
F G F C
The air is gettin' hotter, there's a rumblin' in the skies.
F G
I've been wadin' through the high muddy waters,
F C
But the heat riseth in my eyes.
Am/f# F
Everyday your memory goes dimmer,
Dm C
It doesn't haunt me like it did before.
F G
I've been walkin' through the middle of nowhere,
F C
Tryin' to get to heaven before they close the door.
F G F C
When I was in Missouri, they would not let me be.
F G F C
I had to leave there in a hurry, I only saw what they let me see.
Am F
You broke a heart that loved you,
Dm C
Now you can seal up the book and not write anymore.
F G
I've been walkin' that lonesome valley,
F C
Tryin' to get to heaven before they close the door.
F G F C
People on the platforms, waitin' for the trains.
F G F C
I can hear their hearts a-beatin', like pendulum swingin' on chains.
Am F
When you think that you've lost everything,
Dm C
You find out you can always lose a little more.
F G
I'm just going down the road feelin' bad,
F C
Tryin' to get to heaven before they close the door.
INST
F G F C
I'm goin' down the river, down to New Orleans.
F G
They tell me everything is gonna be all right,
F C
But I don't know what all right even means.
Am F
I was ridin' in a buggy with Miss Mary Jane,
Dm C
Miss Mary Jane got a house in Baltimore.
F G
I've been all around the world boys,
F C
I'm tryin' to get to heaven before they close the door.
F G F C
Gotta sleep down in the parlor, and relive my dreams.
F G F C
I close my eyes and I wonder, if everything is as hollow as it seems.
Am F
Some trains don't pull no gamblers,
Dm C
No midnight ramblers like they did before.
F G
I've been to Sugartown, I shook the sugar down,
F C
Now I'm tryin' to get to heaven before they close the doors
