Bob Dylan - Trying to get to heaven

^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 ^CdimEvery day your memory grows d^G#2immer ^FmIt 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 ^FmNow 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 ^CdimWhen you think that you lost ^G#2everything ^FmYou 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 ^CdimI was riding in a buggy with Miss ^G#2Mary-Jane ^FmMiss 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 ^CdimSome trains don't pull no ^G#2gamblers ^FmNo 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
