Trying To Get To Heaven chords for acoustic guitar
David Bowie (Bob Dylan) *

Capo II

G A G
The air is getting hotter
D
There's a rumbling in the skies
G A
I've been wading through the high muddy water
G D
With the heat rising through my eyes
Bm G
Every day your memory grows dimmer
E D
It doesn't hurt me like it did before
G A
I've been walking through the middle of nowhere
G D
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door

G A G
People on the platforms
D
Waiting for the trains
G A
I can hear their hearts a-beatin'
G D
Like pendulums swinging on chains
Bm G
When you think that you lost everything
Em D
You find out you can always lose a little more
G A
I'm just going down the road feeling bad
G A G D
Oooh trying to get to heaven before they close the door
G A G D
Oooh trying to get to heaven before they close the door
G A G D
Oooh trying to get to heaven before they close the door

D G F G D
Oooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh

G A G D
Oooh trying to get to heaven before they close the door
G A G D
Oooh trying to get to heaven before they close the door

G A G
I'm going down the river
D
Down to New Orleans
G A
They tell me everything is gonna be all right
G D
But I don't know what "all right" even means
Bm G
I close my eyes and I wonder boys
E D
If everything is as hollow as it seems
G A
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
G D
Now I'm trying to get to heaven before they close the door
G A G D
Oooh trying to get to heaven before they close the door
G A G D
Oooh trying to get to heaven before they close the door
G A G D
Oooh trying to get to heaven before they close the door . . .
