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. 
 
G                                       C               G 
Life is like a mountain railway with an Engineer that's brave 
                                         A7            D 
we must make the run successful from the cradle to the grave 
G                                            C             G 
heed the curves the hills the tunnels, never falter, never fail 
                                                D7     G 
keep your hand upon the throttle and your eye upon the rail 
 
           C                         G 
(CHORUS:)  Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us 
                   A7       C 
till we reach that blissful shore 
G                        C                G         D7  G 
where the angels wait to join us in God's praise forevermore 
 
verse 2 
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)
