Verse 1
G 
D 
G 
There is
C 
D 
C 
getting hotter,
G 
there's a rumbling in the skies
C 
I've been wading through
D 
the high muddy water
C 
G 
With the heat rising in my eyes
C#dim 
Every day your
C 
memory grows dimmer
Am 
G 
It doesn't hurt me like it did before
C 
I've been walking through
D 
the middle of nowhere
C 
I tried to get to heaven
G 
before they closed the door
C 
D 
C 
When I was in Missouri
G 
They would not let me be
C 
D 
I had to leave there in a hurry
C 
G 
I only saw what they let
C#dim 
me see
C 
Broken heart that loved you
Am 
Now you can see love the book
G 
and  not write anymore
C 
I've been walking that
D 
lonesome valley
C 
Trying to get to heaven
G 
C 
before they close the door
D 
C 
People on the platforms
G 
Waiting for the trains
C 
D 
C 
I can hear their hearts beating
Like pencil looms swinging
G 
C 
on chains
C#dim 
When you think that
C 
you've lost everything
Am 
You find out you can al
G 
ways lose a little more
C 
I'm just going down the road,
D 
feeling bad
C 
And I'm trying to get to heaven
Am 
G 
C 
D 
C 
G 
C

before they close the door

Am 
G 
C 
D 
C 
I'm going down the river
G 
Down to New Orleans,
C 
they tell me everything
D 
is gonna be alright
C 
G 
But I don't know what alright even means
C#dim 
C 
I was riding in a buggy
with Miss Mary Jane
Am 
G 
Miss Mary Jane got a house in Baltimore
C 
Am 
D 
I've been all around the world, boys
C 
Now I'm trying to get to heaven
G 
before they close the door
C 
D 
Gonna sleep down in the parlor
C 
G 
And relive my dreams
C 
D 
I'll close my eyes and I  wonder
C 
G 
If everything is as hollow as it seems
A 
C#dim 
C 
Some     trains don't pull no gamblers
Am 
No midnight ramblers
G 
like they did before
C 
I've been to sugar town,
Am 
D 
I shook the sugar down
C 
So now I'm trying to get to heaven
G 
before they close the door
C 
Trying to get to heaven
G 
before they close the door
C

Yeah

Before they close the door
C 
G 
And  I, I,

And I, before they close the door

G 
Tryin' to get to heaven, yeah...
