Life's Railway to Heaven
recorded on the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's album, Will the Circle Be Unbroken
Volume 2; sang by Johnny Cash
I'm not sure if this is the same key as the recording, but I'm pretty sure
it's the same time and same progressions. There are multiple instrumentals
in it, but if I remember correctly, they all cover the verse and chorus
parts. (I have been capoing at the 3rd fret so it would be in Bb.) 4/4 time.
GLife is like a mountain railway with an CEngineer that's Gbrave
we must make the run successful from the A7cradle to the Dgrave
Gheed the curves the hills the tunnels, never Cfalter, never Gfail
keep your hand upon the throttle and your eye upD7on the Grail
(CHORUS:) CBlessed Savior, Thou wilt Gguide us
till we reach that A7blissful Cshore
Gwhere the angels wait to Cjoin us in God's Gpraise forD7everGmore
As we roll along the mainline, there'll be storms and there'll be night
there'll be sidetracks unexpected on the left and on the right
but with the straight always before us and our hearts upon the prize
there'll be no disembarkation until we reach paradise
CHORUS
