[Verse 1]
     A                       D        A
Well I've been all around my old home town
A                            E
I have searched everywhere I know
       A                      D            A
But I can't find any trace of my girl in this place
           A          E      A
So there's nothing to do but go

[Chorus]
        A                    D               A
I'll be riding that midnight train when it's leaving
        A             E
And I'm going away to stay
       A                         D          A
Always wanted to know where that engine did go
         A           E      A
Going to go where it goes today

[Verse 2]
        A                            D            A
Oh, she said she'd be true 'till the fighting was through
           A                    E
Said she'd wait for me 'til the end
          A                     D             A
But she's proven untrue and her sweet love is through
       A             E       A
So I'm catching that train again

[Chorus]
        A                    D               A
I'll be riding that midnight train when it's leaving
        A             E
And I'm going away to stay
       A                         D          A
Always wanted to know where that engine did go
         A           E      A
Going to go where it goes today

[Verse 3]
           A                          D           A
Well I've seen that old train pulling out in the rain
        A                       E
Seen it leave with the stars up above
       A                       D         A
Like a hound on the trail it carries the mail
         A        E            A
It will take me away from that love

[Chorus]
        A                    D               A
I'll be riding that midnight train when it's leaving
        A             E
And I'm going away to stay
       A                         D          A
Always wanted to know where that engine did go
         A           E      A
Going to go where it goes today

       A                         D          A
Always wanted to know where that engine did go
         A           E      A
Going to go where it goes today
