Key: C Tuning: E A D G B E Intro: Dmaj7 | Bm7-5 | C#m7 | F#m7 : F6 | A | Amaj7 : Verse 1: Dmaj7 Bm7-5 The air is getting hotter C#m7 F#m7 There's a rumbling in the skies Dmaj7 Bm7-5 I've been wading through the high muddy water C#m7 F#m7 With the heat rising in my eyes D#m7-5 D Every day your memory grows dimmer Bm7 Amaj7 It doesn't haunt me like it did before Dmaj7 Bm7 I've been walking through the middle of nowhere C#m7 F#m7 Trying, trying to get to heaven F6 A Before they close, close the door
Verse 2: Dmaj7 Bm7-5 When I was in Missouri C#m7 F#m7 They would not let me be Dmaj7 Bm7-5 I had to leave there in a hurry C#m7 F#m7 I only saw what they let me see D#m7-5 D You broke a heart that loved you Bm7 A Now you can seal up the book, you don't have to write anymore Dmaj7 Bm7-5 I've been walking that lonesome valley C#m7 F#m7 Trying, trying to get to heaven F6 Amaj7 Before they close, close the door Verse 3: Dmaj7 Bm7-5 People on the station C#m7 F#m7 Waiting on the trains Dmaj7 Bm7-5 I can hear their hearts a-beatin' C#m7 F#m7 Like pendulums swinging on chains D#m7-5 D When you think that you lost everything Bm7 Amaj7 You find out you can always lose a little more Dmaj7 Bm7-5 I'm just going down the road feeling bad C#m7 F#m7 Trying, trying to get to heaven F6 Amaj7 Before they close, close the door Verse 4: Dmaj7 Bm7-5 I'm going down the river C#m7 F#m7 Down to New Orleans Dmaj7 Bm7-5 I close my eyes, close my eyes and wonder C#m7 F#m7 If everything is as hollow as it seems D#m7-5 D Some trains don't pull no gamblers Bm7 Amaj7 No midnight ramblers, like they did before Dmaj7 Bm7-5 I been all around the world, boys C#m7 F#m7 Now I'm trying, trying to get to heaven F6 Amaj7 Before they close, close the door [Coda] Dmaj7 | Bm7-5 | C#m7 | F#m7 : F6 : A
