Trying To Get To Heaven chords

Intro: [G#2] [G#maj] [A#] [D#]

[G#]The air is getting [A#]hotter
[G#]There's a rumbling in the [D#]skies
[G#]I've been wading through the [A#]high muddy water
[G#]With the heat rising in my [D#]eyes
[Cdim]Every day your memory grows d[G#2]immer
[Fm]It doesn't haunt me like it d[D#]id before
[G#]I've been walking through the middle o[A#]f nowhere
[G#]Trying to get to heaven before they [D#]close the door

[G#]When I was in [A#]Missouri
[G#]They would not let me [D#]be
[G#]I had to leave there in a [A#]hurry
[G#]I only saw what they let me [D#]see
CDim [G#2]
You broke a heart that loved you
[Fm]Now you can seal up the book and not w[D#]rite anymore
[G#]I've been walking that lonesome [A#]valley
[G#]Trying to get to heaven before they close[D#] the door

[G#]People on the [A#]platforms
[G#]Waiting for the [D#]trains
[G#]I can hear their hearts a[A#] -beatin'
[G#]Like pendulums swinging on [D#]chains
[Cdim]When you think that you lost [G#2]everything
[Fm]You find out you can always lose [D#]a little more
[G#]I'm just going down the road f[A#]eeling bad
[G#]Trying to get to heaven before they c[D#]lose the door

[G#]I'm going down the[A#] river
[G#]Down to New [D#]Orleans
[G#]They tell me everything is gonna be [A#]all right
[G#]But I don't know what "all rig[D#]ht" even means
[Cdim]I was riding in a buggy with Miss [G#2]Mary-Jane
[Fm]Miss Mary-Jane got a house in [D#]Baltimore
[G#]I been all around the world, [A#]boys
[G#]Now I'm trying to get to heaven before they c[D#]lose the door

[G#]Gonna sleep down in the [A#]parlor
[G#]And relive my [D#]dreams
[G#]I'll close my eyes and I w[A#]onder
[G#]If everything is as hollow as it [D#]seems
[Cdim]Some trains don't pull no [G#2]gamblers
[Fm]No midnight ramblers, like they [D#]did before
[G#]I been to Sugar Town, I shook the [A#]sugar down
[G#]Now I'm trying to get to heaven before they c[D#]lose the door
